    New movement controls for projects/groups at the bottom of tasker

    Tyler T · 0 · Posted

    Currently, it is quite tedious creating a new project and moving it to where you want it to be if you already have several projects created. Everytime you hold in on the project and move it left, or right, it only moves one time and you have to repeat till you get the project where you want it with other projects. Would be sweet if you could hold and drag them where you want them, or have a move button that had a constant "left" and "right" button with a check mark next to them to move them where you

    PROFILES>>>Application。 Use package or application name global variable

    PROFILES>>>Application。 When the application is used as a trigger condition, the application selection hopes to support package name / application name filling like autoinput, support variable filling, and adds a search function to facilitate selection.

    auto save task when back button is pressed

    Frank G · 1 · Last reply by Garreth Tinsley

    I think it's happen to all of us : we are trying to make a new task and someone call us on phone, or we receive important message => after, bad habits maybe, we close all the programs running in background...and we close tasker and we lost all our work !! :'(

    The feature to auto save the task without clicking on the check mark on the top right side will be great

    what do you think ?

    AutoTools Dialog List functionality fatally lost upon tapping the Android Home or Recent button

    YsTL · 1 · Last reply by Pico Benguet

    When a task puts an AutoTools Dialog List on screen, and subsequently we tap the Android Home or Recent button, then :::

    [1:] not only the AutoTools List instance disappears unrecoverably, since it won't figure in the Android "Recent" scroller, 

    but also [2:] attempting to run the same task again will fail at putting the expected Dialog List onto screen, unless AutoTools is Force Stopped first (*>) [or the device rebooted],

    and moreover [3:] the same failure then also applies to whichever other task would need to generate any other AutoTools List dialog. __________________________________________________________

    An action to get the cordinates of the current fingers on the screen.

    Jackal Zhao · 2 · Last reply by Joe Cornelius

    I'm planing a useful task, but there is a crutial step, which is getting the current finger location on the screen, and see if the finger is touching on a specific area, then perform different actions. 

    I've searched many methods, but neither Tasker Actions nor Plugins can offer the touched location. I know that using Java Function (android.view.accessibility) might be able to do it, but it's a pity I'm not knowlegeable about java function.

    So here I wish Joao Dias could add Tasker an action of getting touched location. This action would bring greatly convinience for some scenes.

    Make more Javascript libraries supported by default in Tasker!

    Christopher Peralta · 0 · Posted

    I think having more Javascript libraries supported by default in Tasker would be a huge benefit to Tasker!

    For example:   

    This library, which provides NLP date parsing, would make it pretty easy to automatically add calendar events by parsing sentences such as: "We have a meeting at 6 on Tuesday".  

    Not sure if there are any copyright issues, but this is my one idea worth sharing.  

      Edits:

    In other words: Here are the default libraries in Tasker, I just want this list to be longer.

    A suggestion from /u/EllaTheCat on /r/tasker is to just add a load library action,

    Support mp4 videos in the Set Wallpaper action

    Jason Fournier · 0 · Posted

    Tasker currently only supports png and jpg image files in the Set Wallpaper action. Most modern phones now support live wallpapers, which are often .mp4 videos up to 15 seconds long.

    It would be nice to be able to support these .mp4 videos in the Set Wallpaper action.

    "Allow Phone Access" in WebView will not stay checked

    Hjw6213 · 1 · Last reply by the squimbly

    This problem is posted on Reddit by u/IVIichaelGScott a while back but he did not get around to posting it here. I am therefore posting it here since I am having the same problem. 

    https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/9hl84r/allow_phone_access_in_webview_will_not_stay/

    https://i.imgur.com/6HEHOda.jpg Whenever I check "Allow Phone Access" and then back out of the screen, it un-checks itself. I have a stock T-Mobile Galaxy Note 9 on Android 8.1. Any ideas?

    This problem only happens if URI mode is selected in the webview options.

    I have a mi9 running AOSP ROM and android 9.

    Profile conditions for Scenes

    roizcorp · 0 · Posted

    In scenes, often elements may change values, size and images by reacting to conditions, the problem though I have to test each element to know its current state and then decide what to do with it.

    Some elements may change in the background based on other element condition or based on another task that is running in the background

    I would like to specify conditions as a profile that would matter for scenes and then run tasks that will affect on them (I suppose that the first and obligatory condition is that the scene is created.

    %CELLSIG and %CELLSRV don't return the correct values

    %CELLSIG always returns -1 and %CELLSRV always returns unknown for LTE networks.

    Apparently this is a long standing issue.

    The state of Use New Cell API has no effect.

    Tasker > Set Tasker Preference > Lock Code not working

    Ian Grody · 1 · Last reply by Andreas Reiner

    I was hoping to use this feature to lock out Tasker for X period from any use by generating a random PIN, then reverting it back to a known one after a period (toggle Task style).

    However, the Set Preference > Lock Code causes the PIN to be reset despite it's value, thus disabling the lock.

    Thanks.

    read fingerprint action

    roizcorp · 0 · Posted

    As a user I would like Tasker to read fingerprint on demand and react to it by logic (registered fingerprint) by type (gesture or normal read) and by task (invoke any task). Yes , I know there is already the authenticate dialogue, but it uses the OS UI while I want only the action itself. Currently I'm using a 3rd party app to invoke task in Tasker.

    Can we have the option to view run log time down to the MILLISECOND, instead of just to the second?

    thomas · 1 · Last reply by Richard Kemp

    A lot of the time I have tasks that I would like to time-optimize.  I would like to know which actions in the task are the slowest ones.  It would greatly improve my judgment to know how slow each action is in my tasks.

    The run log shows us the time each action happened, but sadly it only tells us the time down to the second.  NOT to the millisecond.

    PLEASE allow us to enable more exact timestamps to be shown on the run log.  For users like me who want a better understanding of each action's latency, this is

    TeamDrive support for Google Drive actions

    Zachary Denny · 0 · Posted

    Business Google Accounts include the use of "TeamDrives" in addition to the standard "My Drive". TeamDrives are just like"My Drive" except they are designed more for collaboration.

    This is all part of Google Drive and it's API but Tasker seems to default to only access the "My Drive".... Please allow support for accessing TeamDrives
