STM32CubeMx "List Pinout Compatibility" feature seems to be broken in 6.5.0

I want to convert my project from using an STM32G491xE to an STM32G431xB.

To my understanding, the only way to switch between microcontrollers is using the STM32CubeMx "List Pinout Compatibility" feature.

The problem: this functionality does not work on the STM32CubeMx v6.5.0 release.

Not only does it display those weird graphical glitches (see .avi), but it prevents me from doing any conversion (the convert button is never enabled).

This problem has been reproduced with another computer with a fresh install of CubeMx v6.5.0.

The problem has not been seen on CubeMx v6.4.0.

---

In the meantime, what is the workaround for this?

Is there a manual way to convert a CubeMx v6.5.0 project into a CubeMx v6.4.0 project?

Thanks

Hello @GBert.2​,

Thank you for your feedback,

This is a known issue and has already been reported internally. It will be fixed as soon as possible.

Internal ticket number: 125055 (This is an internal tracking number and is not accessible or usable by customers).

In the meantime, I suggest to reconfigure your MX project with the new device.

We apologize for the inconvenience. If you have any further questions do not hesitate to ask.

Best regards,

Aziz

Thanks for your support. I hope this is fixed soon.

If I may, I would suggest renaming the "List Pinout Compatibility" feature: it's not clear that it's the menu for switching between MCU.

As one of the main objectives of the HAL library is to be portable, I'm surprised by how difficult it is to find that feature.

Best regards,

Gabriel

The processors are extremely difficult to obtain and then this feature fails. The tool finds just over half a million chips in one day. I'm seriously wondering if ST is actually interested in the whole thing.

Thanks for raising awareness about this issue.

Sadly, I ended up doing it manually last month.
