If I have forgot what type of board I have chosen for a given project, where can  check it in the Cube IDE?

Hello @MichalPorazko 

Just open the .ioc file of your project and select the pinout view and you will have a picture of the MCU that is used for this project:

You can also have a look at the name of the .id files of your project:

Ps: it will tell you the MCU and not the board but generally, each MCU is used on only one board.
I think also the recommandation of opening the .ioc file in text editor and look for the name of the board directly is the best as said @Pavel A. if the project is based on a .ioc file. If not, the name of the .id files are the best way.
Best Regards.

But that doesn't directly tell you what board.

@MichalPorazko But there aren't generally that many ST boards for the same processor - so it should be fairly easy to figure out...

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.

Open the ioc file in text editor and look for lines lke:

board=STM32C0316-DK
boardIOC=true
