Keyboard keys stop working at random STM32CubeIDE Linux

[Dabbo]

I use STM32CubeIDE on Linux Ubuntu (and to a lesser extent on MacOS and Windows, but I don't recall having a problem on the last 2 operating systems). About once or twice a day, at random, several of the keys such as <backspace> and <enter> and <delete> stop working. All the alphabetical and number keys work as normal. If I switch to a different application all the keys are working, but when I switch back to Cube the problem continues.

I solve the problem by saving my work, shutting and relaunching Cube. Is this a bug in the application?

Hi!

Are there any updates to this issue? As of 1 September 2024, this issue is still present on the Ubuntu operating system.

Hello,

I suggest that you download the last version of STM32CubeIDE through this link:

STM32CubeIDE - Integrated Development Environment for STM32 - STMicroelectronics.

In fact, this issue does not exist anymore on STM32CubeIDE 1.16.0 ; Ubuntu 22.04.

Thanks.

Mahmoud

It still exists with 1.16.1; Ubuntu 22.04

I'm still experiencing a similar problem on the latest version (6.17.0) on Debian sid with Cinnamon. Though in my case the keyboard stops working entirely. I can't enter any text and keybinds like CTRL+S don't work either. It's coupled with very slow startup times of the program. Strangely it only manifests on my laptop and not on my desktop PC with the same OS and desktop environment.

That sounds like a CubeMX version ?

Is only your CubeMX affected, or also CubeIDE - if so, what version?

as in, for all apps - not just Cube-related ?
