Missing pinout compatibility check feature in STMCubeIDE (H7 and F7)

I remember there was a feature in STM32CubeMX for pin out compatibility check which was very useful for designers to find a pin compatible uController. I can't find the same feature here in the latest STMCubeIDE. Is this feature obsolete?

I'm wondering what is the best option in H7 product line to be replaced with my current micocontroller which is STM32F765ZGT6-LQFP144?

Thanks in advance

You can always open the IOC file in standalone STM32CubeMX and list compatible pinouts (Alt+L) there.

Thanks @TDK​ , I tried with STM32CubeMX standalone version and "list compatible pinouts" feature was available.

However, unfortunately I couldn't find any H7 pin compatible with STM32F765ZGT6-LQFP144 even when I ignored power pins or other options! I'm 100% sure two years ago when I was designing this hardware I could find a pin compatible H7 version of this microcontroller. At that time I wanted to keep the option of using higher performance microcontroller for future. But right now it seems that I can't find any H7 microcontroller for this purpose!!

Do you have any suggestion?

This suggests pin-to-pin compatibility on LQFP144.

I see many options. I checked one, which appeared valid. Unchecking "Ignore Power Pins" seems to erase all results, not sure why.
