    ''Is there a PDF format manual for the V3 std peripheral library, like UM0427 was for the V2?''

     

    No, there isn't.

    :(

    This is a Really Bad Thing, IMO.

    See:

    A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.

    ''the existence of a documented API was a factor''

    To be fair, the API is documented - it's just that the documentation is no longer in the form of a PDF!

    Ouch.  My opinion too.  I should mention to ST that the existence of a documented API was a factor in my jumping to the STM32, and that it has made learning the part much easier.
