Nucleo-H563ZI Project from Touch GFX will not show .ioc in STM32CubeIDE

[PFlor.2]

I created a project in TouchGFX Designer for the Nucleo-H563ZI dev kit as suggested by ST for projects that use TouchGFX.  Once created I imported the existing project into STM32CubeIDE which was fine, however the project explorer in STM32CubeIDE does not show the .ioc file even though it exists in the actual project files.

I tried to copy a link to the .ioc into the CubeIDE project explorer but when I try to open it the IDE says it's not part of the project, however I can open it in CubeMX and generate files just fine.  What am I missing?

Hello,

I reproduced the behavior, I will escalate it internally. I will get back to you for any feedback. (Internal ticket number 191086)

But you can still use the independent STM32CubeMx tool to open your ioc file.

It's probably a naming issue and some of the project files is looking for another name?

It's been awhile so i don't know what has changed in TouchGFX but here is a video that shows how to rename the project to a useful name and adding the IOC file.

It is a naming issue. Rename the IOC file by replacing the underscore with hyphens. Then you should be able to drag the file onto the project and link it.

STM32H563ZI-NUCLEO-AZ2.ioc

 

Here you can see the IOC file opened after it was renamed to match the project name.

That was it...hard to see that difference with underscore vs dash.  Thanks!

I know exactly what you mean, lol.

When i added the IOC to the project, which produced the warning, my brain was telling me something isn't right. I didn't see the issue. So i deleted the IOC file and added it again. Again my brain sensed the issue right away but it took my eyes about a minute to then see the difference.
