Can't import IOC using STM32CubeIDE v2.0.0

STM32CubeIDE Version: 2.0.0

When trying to create a new project from the IOC of another project, I can't find a way to do it. Is this feature lost or BUG ? Thanks in advance.

STM32CubeIDE doesn't open or deal with IOC files anymore. Use the standalone STM32CubeMX to open the IOC, save it somewhere else, and create a project.

Thanks for the reply. Do you know where I can find documentation for this procedure? I want to keep the configuration from previous projects. They even removed the asterisks (which showed the most frequently used MCUs) when creating a project and made everything more cumbersome, with a smaller font than before...

The CubeMX functionality has been separated from CubeIDE v2.0.0:

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.

Here's procedure:

Open IOC file in standalone STM32CubeMX.

Select File -> Save Project As and save it at another location.

Generate Code. Select Open Project on popup after code generates.

I managed to get it working last night, starting from the MX and it opens the IDE, with or without IOC... perhaps in habit one loses the ability to see the advantages of changes... in any case, I think I prefer integration over interoperability, thanks and regards
