Tasker Services Pause aka "Sleep Mode"

Most of us have Tasker handling several Profiles such as Car, Home, Work and Sleep. In my personal setep, the Sleep profile disables many things in the phone to save battery in case it is not plugged in.

Would be great to have a "Pause Tasker Services" action that would disable Tasker services/wakelocks... Choosing which type of monitoring will be disabled or just keeping a time based one (Time Event/State). During this time, all Profiles that depend on the monitors, will stay in the same state (Active/Inactive) during the whole period and will not change until the monitors are activated again.

When activated again, Tasker works as usual and the profiles can go Active/Inactive and execute theis enter and exit tasks.

Hi. You can already do this using the Profile State action. :)

Hi João. Thanks for the response.

Do you mean the Profile Status?

If so, this is a different approach. Turning profiles off causes the exit task to be performed. My idea is that the profile stays active, or actually dormant. It would only perform the exit task after the monitors are activated again and if the conditions are not met anymore.

Is it possible right now or am I missing something?

Oops, yes, sorry that one :)

What you could do to not perform the exit tasks would be to have Stop actions that stopped the actions right away if some variable (like %Sleeping) was set for example.

That is what I currently do. It is working fine, just have to run the exit task after the sleeping mode is deactivated. More steps, but works 

But I saw that the " grace period" is planned: Link

That feature would be perfect for my case. You plan to add the period to be defined inside the task/profile itself? So we can have different grace periods for each profile.

Best regards.
