STM32CubeMX 5.0

Posted by chrisjn52 on 2018-12-06 10:47

CubeMX 5.0, (under Eclipse), hangs under the following scenario:

Make a change in CubeMX window, in my case select one pulse timer mode, (see attached screenshot).
Do something else until the Project not saved dialogue box appears, in my case I browsed the internet.
Click on Yes to save and the application hangs.

File/Save from the menu works ok.

Thumbs down for CubeMX 5.0 The GUI is chaotic. It looks like a mobile application. A lot of clicks are needed to open all categories on the left side. The middleware section in the middle does not fit so scrolling is needed. I do not see what the improvement is but if you want to use the latest drivers i guess you need to live with it.

I second that, this version 5.0 is even on a full hd screen very difficult to use. Just try the configure DMA settings to see what I mean.
A lot of space is wasted. Even though the old 4.x version might have looked a little bit outdated, at least the layout used the space wisely and showed you all you had to see without scrolling in dialogs.
