I would like to know if it would be possible to add a new feature to Tasker about project organization. The issue is about the organization of the projects. Well, Tasker currently allows to have individual projects, which can contain profiles, tasks and scenes. But there is no way to organize projects in "mega-projects", to put it in some way. That is, as a project of several projects. Thank you very much ;)

It'd be great to be able to copy the If section of one action to another.  There are certain criteria I use over and over, and typing them each time leads to typos.  And it's so frustrating to get a complex If tweaked just right and then realize I should have used a different action.  It'd be nice to be able to use Switch Action without losing the criteria, or to be able to copy the existing criteria and paste them into a new action.

I'm not talking about copying the variable or value individually.  I know that's already possible. 

It would be beneficial if wen could move the Tasker-Backup anywhere in Google Drive. At the moment it's on the start folder of "My Drive" and it can't be moved. Else a new Tasker-Backup-Folder will be created.

I made a short video to illustrate the problems.  Please view it!

There are two problems with dragging and dropping items:

1. Dragging and dropping an item between two other items SHOULD place it between them.  But it does not.  It doesn't work properly.  It often either doesn't register any change in position, or it puts the item in the wrong place altogether.  Here is another video demonstrating the problem; in this one, the dragging doesn't do ANYTHING for the first few attempts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKYqYJBBMy4

2. There should really be some UI to indicate where a dragged item will land, similar

Hi, Bidirectional BLE Integration in Tasker would be awesome for makers and hardware dabblers, it could make Tasker even more interesting to us.

I think these would be the features that would be needed: 1) Have Tasker connect on some bonded devices when they are within range (currently available via Plugin BLE AutoConnect) 2) "listen" on specified service and characteristic UUID for "notifies" so to trigger profiles, 3) BLE-Write to a specified characteristic. Cheers!

Currently when using the "Create Element" action to add an element to an existing scene - there's no way/place to put any Actions for Tap or Long Tap, etc.

For example the first element type listed in the drop-down menu of "Create Element" is "Button". However it will be a button that does nothing because there's no place to specify the Actions for it ;)

Would it be possible to have a new action for scanning bluetooth iBeacons and returning information in variables such as mac address etc.

Also the possibility of an action to scan for a specific ibeacons mac address with variable results stating whether it was found or not.

A trigger would be good too. Maybe an 'if near ibeacon' with the ability to set the required ibeacon mac address. Also separate settings for scan times which would be set separately to the 'BT scan seconds' and the 'Display off monitoring' settings so that it could check at a more granular interval

Since Tasker has been green lighted for SMS/MMS, would it be permitted if Tasker could register as default SMS/MMS App?

I suggest this idea as with the SmsManager class/objects, we could control SMS/MMS much more. This would include building our own SMS/MMS apps, backing up/restoring, organising and filtering as well as blocking/spam filtering. It would also allow us to see hidden short codes from those dodgy SMS spammers.

Essentially, Tasker would just need to register it for now, rather than you make anything forward facing for it. Java could then do the rest. I for one would start

I want to disable my 'work' alarm when my calendar has an event 'holiday'.

The task 'Cancel alarm' only opens the alarm app on my phone, but does not cancel it. Makes no difference which mode (disable current, by label, any). I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 with Android 8.0, alarm app v7.0.92.4.

PS: The task 'Set alarm' actually does work.

PS2: also plugin 'ClockTask' wont disable an alarm.

Currently the "Text" elements in the scene creator allow for the field to be set to "HTML" instead of "Plain Text". This currently allows for adjustments of the text like size/colour/bold etc, programmed directly into the text field with HTML code. however, this is very basic HTML support and would like to expand the option to include CSS styles so that text can be altered further, for instance the below doesn't currently work in the text field.

<p style="text-transform: capitalize;">%DEVMAN</p>

Where %DEVMAN = device manufacturer. Since this is a global variable I don't want to have to create another variable

Currently Tasker's Search feature doesn't let you specify whether to constrain the search to just Tasks, or just Profiles, or Scenes, etc.

The current drop-down menu only lets you specify "Contains", "Matches", or "Regex" and the toggles at the bottom are "USER DATA", "FEATURES". etc.

So I guess adding another separate dropdown menu for "All", "Tasks", "Profiles", "Scenes" would work. Or - add them as Toggles so that combinations could be selected.

Really need the creation of a new/additional Search/Replace that primarily enabled two things:

1. Allow named groups in the regex to automatically create variables and values within the Task.

2. Allow multiple replaces at one time in the Action by inputing a group name along with its replacement value.

Pairs should likely be created/input using the format of the new Task/Profile/Project variables feature, where you press a " + " button, and a new pair of fields appears.

For full detail and code examples please see this reddit post.

Do you see how when I drag layers around in Photoshop, it clearly shows where the layers will be placed when I release them? It highlights the space between the two destination layers as a visual cue to show me where my dragged layer(s) will land.

Tasker doesn't have any visual indication of this!  As a result, at least half the time I drag my tasks/scenes/profiles, they end up in the wrong place because there is no visual indication of where I need to drag them to move them where I want!

Please add a visual indicator along the

Hello,

When waiting for call event like "Missed Call" I need to find out which sim card the call was missed on. this not supported now. This prevents me from using the app, instead I use Automate app :-(

there is support when I send SMS for second sim card.. but that is for nothing if I don't knoiw where I missed the call :-D

Having the possibility to do file operations (e. g. Test File, List Files, Copy, Rename File, Create Folder) on SMB shared folders would make many tasks like syncing some files to a local NAS or a share on the PC much easier.

My suggestion is to add a feature that lets the user perform basic FTP Upload and Download operations that support Tasker tasks and also kid apps created through Tasker App Factory.

It could have the following Parameters:-

Mode(Dropdown box): Upload/Download options.

Host:

Username:

Password:

Source File:

Destination Directory:

Timeout:

ASCI Mode/Binary Mode (Check Box)

Local Passive/Extended Passive Mode (Checkbox)

We currently have an action to show the soft keyboard. However, there is currently no way to detect if the keyboard is already showing. Some way to detect this state has been requested several times on various Tasker forums.

I request an action to close the keyboard, if currently shown, and an action that returns the current state of the keyboard.

On the newer Samsung phones, Bixby has access to many system settings that are not available without root.  It would be great if we could send commands to Bixby.  Maybe using intents or Bixby "Type to Bixby" function.

Hi, could you please add "folder /subfolders'' modification in File Modified Event

We can use File Modified event in tasker to find if a file is modified in a folder 

Is it possible that it can check in the folder/subfolders if the file is modified

Thanks

Usually the first response From João to a request for help is "Tasker Version ?"  especially when dealing with betas. It would be very useful to have a menu option like Menu -> Info > copy tasker info.

This would set the clipboard to all data João would feel necessary to properly assess help requests. Such as Tasker version, app factory version, android version, device, rooted, ect..
