How do I enable FreeRTOS debugging support in CubeIDE?

I've just started my first FreeRTOS-based project.

In the debugger, when I pause execution, all I see is this stack trace:

Thread #1 [main] 1 [core: 0] (suspended : Signal : 0:Signal 0)
 prvCheckTasksWaitingTermination() at tasks.c:2,488 0x800b4f4
 prvIdleTask() at tasks.c:3,235 0x800b404
 pxPortInitialiseStack() at port.c:214 0x00ba94

In order to be able to develop a FreeRTOS-based project, I need to be able to see the whole program, not just the currently suspended thread.

Is there a way, in CubeIDE, of turning on FreeRTOS debugging features such as those present in Atollic or Kinetis Design Studio?

CubeIDE does not yet support the freeRTOS eclipse plugins. I think some persons have been able with third party plugins but not sure which ones.

If you need freeRTOS plugins you better stay with TrueStudio for now.

Thanks, I've successfully installed https://www.highintegritysystems.com/down-loads/stateviewer-plug-in/ into CubeMX 1.2.1, which provides panels for tasks, queues and timers, but not semaphores.

I assume the only way of seeing the other tasks' stacks/variables is to set a breakpoint in those tasks.
