Hi,

we are using STM32L4R9ZI for our project and we have our own PCB.

I have installed all new versions of TouchGFX, STM32CubeMX and MCU package for the IC STM32L4R9ZI and i have generated project using STM32CubeMX in which new TouchGFX is selected. But with this project i am getting issues like dotted display and sometimes RTOS getting stuck.

Can anyone tell me what is the compatible version of STMCubeMX and MCU Package for STM32L4R9ZI IC, to work with the new TouchGFX version?

Regards,

Bala

Hi,

Could you provide more details on the "dotted display" ? Does the RTOS issue also happen with another task than TouchGFX ?

I would not see why the latest versions of STM32CubeMX and MCU package for the STM32L4R9ZI would not work. The application template available in TouchGFX designer for the STM32L4R9 development kit are based on the STM32L4R9AIIx and work.

Hi Romain,

Thank you so much for the fast reply and sorry for the late reply.

I have solved the issue by creating a project directly from the STM32CubeIDE, instead of creating from STM32CubeMX.

Previously I had followed the procedure which is in the below link to create a project and i faced those issues,

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

That is actually interesting (on a personal level at least ^^), I often meet the reverse issue where I would rather create a project starting from CubeMX than from CubeIDE where I would then face issues. What were the kind of bugs/issues you faced ? Or were there actually too many to know where they came from :grinning_face_with_sweat:?

Nevertheless it is good news that you are able to work with it now :thumbs_up:.

I had to change my laptop. I have ACER Aspire 5 with SSD 128 GB D drive and 1000 GB HDD C drive I have a problem with proper installation of STM32CubeIDE 1.5.1 and touchgfx 4.16.1.

Is there a chance that they will work properly, I confirm the proposed paths during installation. GFX Is Installing To Drive D !? Is that okay?

Hi,

Were you successful ? I do not see why it would not work :grinning_face_with_sweat:.
