How to get started?

[TDJ]

Hi community,

I would like to develop simple application for STM32F769i-DISCO board.

It needs graphics with some buttons and text. It needs to read analog and digital data via Arduino shield, support serial communication.

When I start a new project using CubeIDE graphics is not configured.

When I start TouchGFX project I have graphic but nothing else.

What is the recommended approach?

Where from do I download some comprehensive demo?

Some good, well documented examples for this board with instruction on how to compile in MS VS (or VS Code) perhaps would be far more helpful than ST tools mentioned.

Please advise.

Hi,

You have to overwrite some functions to link your code to the objects on your screen. Read https://touchgfx.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205074561-Connecting-the-UI-to-your-system. There are some simple examples around. Start with one button only and work your way up. If you don't understand C++ find some online course.

I hope this helps.

Thank you, I is a good article.

Hi,

Besides the article linked to you by @hansd56​, you could start doing some initial worki by using the STM32F769-DISCO application template through the designer. It does not have an ioc file, yet, but it will come.

Hope that helps.

Best regards,

Martin
