Release details

Introduction

This release note is updated periodically to reflect the latest changes, issues, and limitations of STM32CubeMX2. For the most recent release summary, see the table below

STM32CubeMX2 version	Summary
1.2.0	Main changes: Security fixes Improved the project format naming to better identify targeted IDE Improved robustness during project creation and opening, with earlier error detection and clearer notifications for Peripherals, NVIC, and EXTI Improved robustness against missing or corrupted packs and resources, with initial error inventory coverage in DMA, Clock, EXTI, NVIC, and Project Creation Added progress feedback during project creation/opening, with the ability to cancel ongoing creation/opening operations Improved overall user experience across Parts, Middleware, Pack Manager, Software Configuration, and Peripherals, including responsive design improvements Added peripheral search and filtering, and text search in most configuration views Added direct navigation from used EXTI lines to their corresponding configuration Improved management of configurable parts composing a module, with more granular selection and control Added middleware user experience enhancements and middleware version selection Added pin label visibility from configuration views and restored board pinout constraints Added support to install packs from an EmbSW package Added one-step pack and dependency update Added support for project update to newer compatible pack versions with breaking changes Added access to installed pack license terms directly from disk Added portable installation support Added build profile selection in GUI (Debug/Release/Both) Added STM32CubeMX2 Project Export support for raw format (without IDE project format) Added user preferences management through command-line interface (CLI), and improved user preferences maintainability Added spread-spectrum clock support for supported STM32 devices Improved overall performance and robustness Introduced usage data collection for product selection analytics Customer-reported fixed issues: Command-line interface (CLI) does not generate the build preset in CMake even though the project is generated successfully FDCAN1 RX GPIO configuration not loading after peripheral configuration changes Enhanced user experience related to pack update for already existing project Missing validation for ADC clock frequencies above 36 MHz on STM32C5 devices Improved access to EWARM patches in generated IAR projects Other major fixed issues: NMI IRQ line retrieval in the FLASH panel didn’t work anymore Missing Timer selection option in HAL Time Base for projects created with earlier C5 packs Incorrect red highlighting of DMA code in Code Preview after a second change Dynamic mode for Code Preview not functional anymore
1.1.2	Security fixes
1.1.1	Minor release (Bug fix)
1.1.0	Main changes: Enhanced installation support for multiple STM32CubeMX2 versions, including linked IOC2 files and a pinned icon on the Windows taskbar Added Expand All and Collapse All functions in software configuration panels Added confirmation dialog boxes for selected actions Introduced anonymized data collection for statistic analysis purpose Added options to export the pinout as CSV from a menu: without alternate functions or with alternate functions Added pin labels that can be used from configuration panels Improved command-line interface (CLI) capabilities for software configuration Added a pack version compatibility check Added end-user guidance to run Pack update steps in the correct order, with a focus on device family pack (DFP) and hardware abstraction layer (HAL) packs Increased pin name visibility in the pinout view to improve readability Added the possibility to view all parts that compose a module allowing the end user to enable individual selection and more granular management Improved consistency between clock tree source selection and reset and clock control (RCC) configuration Improved overall performance and robustness Customer-reported fixed issues: Failure to uninstall STM32CubeMX 1.0.0, especially when the user path contains a space Diff collisions are handled poorly when exporting a project through the command-line interface (CLI) User interface (UI) elements resized incorrectly and overlapped when the window was resized Scrolling the mouse wheel while editing the frequency in the clock tree caused the editing window to overlap the clock tree components Resolved the issue where users were unexpectedly required to use administrator rights for installation or uninstallation, although administrator mode is not supported Other major fixed issues: I²C configuration showed no error when a node was unavailable Errors were not visible in the Peripherals tab when interrupt errors occurred Mounted parts were not visible when creating a project and then another project on the same MCU
1.0.1	Patch release Enables users to install multiple versions of STM32CubeMX2 side by side on the same PC. Adds a graphical uninstaller for easier removal. Prevents certain user files from being overwritten during Project Export. Fixes the “Pack Update” feature for new packs with minor changes, which previously did not work correctly.
1.0.0	Initial release
