Where do I set the include path on STM32CubeIDE?

This really seems like a simple thing, but I cannot figure it out. I am getting a linker error "cannot find -l:libtouchgfx-float-abi-hard.a". I can see the file so I know it exists, but it's not finding it. Adding the file manually to the include folder in project explorer does not work.

Pay attention to ':' char added prior file name. Both are reauired library path AND library name

"Adding the file manually to the include folder in project explorer does not work"

The Include path is for finding Compiler (source code) includes - C header files.

As @Cartu38 OpenDev shows, you need the Library path for the Linker to find library files.
