    SmartPhoneLover · 0 · Posted

    Hello Joao, I would like to request something...   Could you add something to filter listed apps in the 'List Apps' action (+ > App > List Apps), like filtering them manually using: pm list packages -3/-s?   Thanks!

    Asking root permission without any profile

    Carlo Borrometi · 3 · Last reply by Carlo Borrometi

    I have already tried to search on internet, and I have seen that a similar problem has been reported, which has been directed to the use of the activity for airplane mode or for data connection,but at the moment I don't have any profile or activity, why does tasker keep asking me for root permissions every hour?

    SSH support can make Tasker more powerful

    Jackal Zhao · 2 · Last reply by John Ahmad

    Tasker is very powerful now, but certainly there are still many tasks Tasker can't do. Such as using ffmpeg converting a video, compressing a png image, run a python script, rotate a video, download a youtube video, etc. 

    It is so good that tasker can run Shell Code to use some command line tools that android supports. But the limitation is that android shell can not install  other powerful command line tools if you have no root permission. 

    Yet, there is another app called Termux( a terminal tool ) can run many Command Line Tools , such as : FFmpeg,

    "Choose a file" action, allowing users to actively choose a file and then let the task process the file. It may requires the system file chooser and wait till it return a file path and then store the path into a variable.

    Show Scene > Display As: Add option to hide nav bar but keep status bar

    Viper21 · 0 · Posted

    In the Show Scene task, there's a dropdown list called Display As.

    I would like an Activity option that allows me to show the status bar but not the nav bar.

    Currently there's a "no nav" option but only with the status bar sap removed. Please could you add that option.

    Thank you.

    Добавьте, пожалуйста, опцию для уведомления чтобы можно было выбирать изображения из галереи

    Я понимаю что эта мелочь не столь приоритетная над остальными планами, но я всё же надеюсь что когда-нибудь в ближайшем времени будет добавлена опция выбора из галереи изображений для уведомления. Очень этого не хватает чтобы пользоваться без стороннего плагина, который полностью на английском языке и ничего в нём не понятно как и что. Я с каждым обновлением приложения проверяю на доступность этой опции и надеюсь на её реализацию. Заранее огромнейшее спасибо

    Choose input device - Keyboard changing

    DenHaz · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm going mad and can't pinpoint the issue.

    Honor View 20, Magic 3.0.0, Android version 10.

    I was ADB authorising Tasker, Join and Autovoice for Android 10 and since then my Android system switches the Keyboard input methods between my keyboard, Tasker and Join, making typing virtually impossible as the keyboard minimises every few seconds.

    I have tried the basics of uninstalling, reinstalling, re-authorising, trying different keyboards installs but nothing holds. I can't find any other similar issues online so it must be something very specific I have done but not sure where to start. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Scene tab crashing

    kingfish · 4 · Last reply by João Dias

    When I go to the scenes tab and tap the plus sign, I'm prompted to name my scene. As soon as I tap the check mark after naming, Tasker crashes. Backed up data, reinstalled, and restored. Same result.

    Encrypted backups

    Ralph · 1 · Last reply by Ralph

    As of now, tasker backups are stored in XML format and is naked. It would be great if it is encrypted or at least locked, below are my suggestions:

    • Encryted XML content with a key like RSA + optional passphrase
    • Zip the file and lock it with a passphrase

    No need to grant them all, at least our setup are locked.

    Please also force us to use strong passphrases. 

    JSON format would be great too since it would be smaller (I think) in size than XML format thus making the encryption or zip locking process a little bit faster

    Rename Toggle to Tasker

    Tasker's default Quick Settings Tile is very useful for disabling/enabling Tasker, but can its label be changed from "Toggle" to "Tasker" to better describe its function?

    Update AutoRotate Behavior

    Vyza · 1 · Last reply by Benjamin Hardy

    Update the behavior of the Tasker Action: Display AutoRotate (Off, On, Toggle) to reflect the Screen rotation changes introduced in Android 9 (API level 28):

    “When the device is in rotation lock mode, users can lock their screen to any rotation supported by the top, visible Activity. An Activity should not assume it will always be rendered in portrait. If the top Activity can be rendered in multiple rotations in auto-rotate mode, the same options should be available in rotation locked mode, …”

    Currently, setting Display AutoRotate to Off, always locks the screen to portrait instead of the current orientation.

    Dynamic variable array for text color and icon for list menu in a scene

    Osuki Fujioka · 4 · Last reply by Jackson Moormeier

    For example, I have an array_list with (red, green, blue), so I want that when the list display, the item red will be in red color and so on.

    So the idea is that we can create another array for example array_color based on array_list with (#ffff0000, #ff00ff00, #ff0000ff) and put the variable in the text color field. Then the text color and array item is link together by the array index, therefore the list will display array_list(1) with the text color array_color(1).

    The same suggestion for image path in Item Layout. So we can put array_icon in the image

    Add select all and clear selection for list menu

    It should be useful if we can select all and clear selection wherever there is a list of item show. For example: List Dialog or List Menu in scene.

    Run a Http server in background. Receive Http post and get events.

    Jackal Zhao · 0 · Posted

    It's been a hard thing to transmit messages from one device to another. Such as simple  sending a long text message from a computer to a android phone. 

    Using the Join to share clipboard requires connecting to Internet and exposing your content go Google. 

    Using Chat softwares has much much limitation. 

    Even if our devices are under same wifi network, it's hard for us to send a simple message from one device to another. 

    So, if Tasker can run a background http server, when there is a http post or http get sent to this server, tasker can triger an

    Task: "While/End While" instructions

    Simaus Masaqer · 1 · Last reply by Max Hendrik Backs

    I know that Mateo asked for some sort of loops like "while", but he was answered with "For" loop which in programming works differently.

    Also, I am asking for true "While" loop. To give better view of this concept I am going to share my case: I'd like to hear who calls on the phone. So, AutoNotification comes here and the Tasker, of course. I make three profiles: one with Event->Phone->Phone Ringing, another one with Event->Phone->Missed Call and the last one with Plugin->AutoNotification. The first two just switch value of one shared variable %phoneRings from false, when phone does not

    Pasting Scene Elements

    Threemoneys · 0 · Posted

    When copy pasting a scene element, the dimensions always change slightly. (e.g. a rectangle of 50x50 becomes a rectangle of 54x47).

    If you immediately change the dimensions (before closing the element edit scene), then the changes will not save. You have to open the element again and change the dimensions.

    Modular Operation

    成 张 · 0 · Posted

    I hope to add a way to modularize the task list.For instance.Now there is actually this modular way.But there's a problem.Is when one of the tasks invokes the other.There is no easy way to edit the task being called.I hope to add a function, that is, in the task that calls other tasks, click on the called task, you can directly enter the editing process of the called task.That would be very convenient.In addition, the task module called in the task list is displayed in another color, so that it can be well distinguished, it is not a normal task
