    Autolocation can't backup and restore

    Thom Young · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi! 

    I have recently bought a new phone but I can't restore my geofences from my previous phone. I only have the option to backup but not to restore. If I click backup it tells me the file path and says it doesn't exist.

    I can see someone else has the same issue here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/167l1yq/autolocation_autoshare_others_cant_backuprestore/?rdt=47611

    de-googled phone: Current beta (6.2.32-rc) complains about end of trial phase

    flipreverse · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi all! I purchased Tasker 8 years ago via Google Playstore. I double checked it. I've now switched to CalyxOS which uses microG and the Aurora Store. The current stable release works fine with microG. No complains at all. If I, however, join the beta program, and install the current beta version (6.2.32-rc), Tasker complains about the end of the trial period. I'm not able to make it work. Deinstalling it, and re-install the current version (6.1.X) brings Tasker to life again. Have you changed the Playstore detection recently? Or anything else in that version related to the Playstore? Regards,

    Depreciated actions should be more noticeable.

    Xeno · 0 · Posted

    Please make text a different color (maybe yellow?) for actions that are depreciated, similar to how you have some in red if unavailable on that phone. 

    that will make it easier to select their replacement the first time without looking for it. 

    thanks for all your hard work

    Geomarker spot colour disabled with variable spot size

    CD · 1 · Last reply by Tim Dexter

    When using "Element Add Geomarker" there is a field called "Spot Colour" which allows you to set the colour of the spot surrounding the marker.

    If the spot radius is set to 0, this parameter disappears, which makes sense. But if you set spot radius to a variable (e.g. %marker(3)) the spot colour parameter also disappears. This means you can only use spot colour if the radius is a constant.

    I imagine this isnt intended

    Fullscreen / Resize Scenes

    Nick Betcher · 0 · Posted

    As a user of Tasker, I need the way to be able to ensure that a scene is, and remains, a certain size, even after the scene has been edited through the Tasker Scene Editor UI. Often it is needed for the scene to be fullscreen and that any actions that alter the screen size/orientation cause the scene to be resized to fill the new screen size.

    Sometimes, it is nice to be able to resize a scene programmatically to a specific size (not necessarily fullscreen) from a Task's or Scene's actions for a variety of reasons. An option in Create

    Set, Detect, and Avoid Mock Locations

    Nick Betcher · 0 · Posted

    (this is technically a duplicate of https://tasker.helprace.com/i1124-mock-up-on-tasker but the title of that post is misleading, at best. It also doesn't have very detailed requirements or a user story. So, here is a better one:)

    As a user of Tasker, I need the ability to be able to set my system's location via the Developer Option's Mock Location App feature so I can ask Tasker to set a fake GPS location for the rest of the system.

    I also need the ability for Tasker to "see past" that fake location so that profile conditions that use Location-driven conditions still work as

    Folders for tasks within a project

    Drasiel · 0 · Posted

    Hello, I have a project that has enough tasks I had to break it into 2 different projects to be able to use the UI properly. There are 29 tasks for the project and as soon as the list of tasks goes over 17 on my phone screen, the ui starts getting janky and it becomes difficult to move and rename any of the tasks in the project. This made me realize that having folders that behave like the collapsable If or For actions would alleviate my issue, while also making organization within a project better. Cheers.

    Tasker mobile network state 'Active' does not apply when a connection is established using ipv6 only. When connected using ipv4 the 'active' state is properly set.

    Add option to set separator for CSV structure

    Konstantin Lisnyak · 0 · Posted
    Currently, Tasker can only extract data from a CSV structure if a comma is used as a separator. But many CSV files use different separators due to the fact that the data itself can contain commas. So it would be nice to be able to choose a custom separator, as is already possible in most array-related actions.

    Tasker allows deleting tasks used in other tasks

    Konstantin Lisnyak · 1 · Last reply by João Dias
    Currently, Tasker prevents the deletion of tasks that are associated with profiles. If a task is not associated with any profile, but is used in one or more other tasks using the "Perform task" action, the user may mistakenly delete such a task and Tasker will not show warnings about the consequences this deletion. It is necessary that the user be warned if the task being deleted is used in other tasks. I believe that this is easy to implement, since even now, when renaming a task, the user is warned about the name change in links to this task,

    Add Notification Click event inside Notify action. Sometimes a single profile is enough but due to lack of Notification Click event inside Notify action we need to create another profile with Notification Click event.

    battery drain

    Is it possible that Tasker will present a list of profiles and tasks sorted by their energy consumption in the past 24H or 7 days? In addition, is it possible to add an action that will present the energy consumption at the end of a task?

    Access Tasker environment functions from actions

    Joe Cornelius · 0 · Posted

    It would be extraordinarily helpful if Tasker provided actions that let us use some or all of the same underlying Tasker management functions that the Tasker environment and Task Editor use.

    Here are some examples of what I'm asking for:

    An action that returns a tasks's cdate and/or edate.  It could accept the taskname as a parameter.

    An action that recognized which task(s) is/are highlighted in a project's Task view would work well with the requested cdate/edate action.  (And a similar action that recognizes selected actions while I'm in the Task Editor.)

    An action that works in the Task Editor

    Add an %item_index variable to each item in a scene's menu, enabling unique images for each list item in a menu

    thomas · 0 · Posted

    Currently in scene menus (those are the lists), every item in the list reuses the same image. The only way to give each item a unique thumbnail image is if it's manually input. For variable input, it's impossible.

     

    This variable would enable variable-populated menus to have unique images for each item.  For example, if your list contains a list of image files within a folder, you'd be able to display a thumbnail of each image in its entry in the list.  And if you were displaying a list of songs, you could show a thumbnail for each song.

    Display issues with multiple custom toasts

    frypf · 1 · Last reply by frypf

    Hi João!

    The fade-in animation on custom toasts is a real dealbreaker for me at the moment in terms of actually being able to use them. I really wish that new toasts would display instantly rather than fading in slowly over the top of the previous one. This is especially jarring and obvious when displaying different text or background colours in quick succession.

    If we could remove the fade-in completely and furthermore make sure only one toast is shown at any one time (either implicitly when creating a new custom toast, or via a separate 'cancel existing custom toasts' action),

    Event for lost data connection

    Thomas Larsen Wessel · 0 · Posted

    I need my Android phone to warn me (eg by playing a tune) when it loses internet connectivity. As far as I can tell, such an event has not been defined in Tasker. Am I right? Could you add such an even to the app?

    As far as I can tell, it should not be hard to implement such an event. Source: https://medium.com/@veniamin.vynohradov/monitoring-internet-connection-state-in-android-da7ad915b5e5. 

    One useful scenario - Why I need it:

    I do some basic surveying using SparkFun Surveyor. In order to give very precise results it must connect to the internet to retrieve correction data. This is called RTK/NTRIP. I

    Allow "Stop" Action to Interrupt "Wait"ing Task

    Nick Betcher · 0 · Posted

    In my opinion, despite task priorities and all the other fancy (yet complicating) features/factors, a Stop action should actually stop a task (hey, concept! Haha), regardless of what it is doing. On some levels this may be difficult, but stopping a task that is currently in a Wait really shouldn't be one of those difficult situations, regardless if Tasker is using Android's alarm scheduling system or an internal timer system.

    It's trivial to test:

    - Wait in one task

    - Attempt to Stop it in another during the other task's Wait action time.

    The task is not only not stopped,
