    Expand the Favorite Actions feature so that it can include the saving of Action parameters as part of the Favorite

    CICS Starter · 2 · Last reply by CICS Starter

    With the abundance of new options soon to be available for the Flash action, it has become even more obvious that there needs to be some way to provide user specifiable defaults for Action parameters. 

    One possible solution would be to expand the Favorite Actions feature so that it would include the saving of Action parameters as part of the Favorite. This feature should be available for all actions. That way the user can save any action as a Favorite along with its default parameters. The use of the favorite will be the same as now but when the Favorite

    Auto trim array elements (global, optional)

    Hi Joao,

    for readability or in unknown input, in Variable Set or Array Set, we often have elements with leading or trailing spaces:

    5, 23, 14.745 ,  12

    A very common technique we probably have to deal with, at least I do it this way, is to variable split with Regex (\s*,\s*). If array elements have been created with Array Set, we may need to do a Search/Replace of whitespace in the array elements.

    IDEA: Let Tasker trim leading and trailing whitespace from array variables on creation and assignment. This should be a global option and initially turned off, for

    Use emojis and text for icons

    Bertie Beck · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Auto notification has three different icon options which can't use the same source, tasks have another. There are hundreds of emojis in keyboards now and the ability to use the same icon for a task and notification and notification status bar icon would be simple to use and look nice and consistent.

    Add Tertiary App and more

    Christian WS · 0 · Posted

    The Secondary App can be used in different contexts, double tap power button, bixby and now double-tap on the back of the device. As it stands, all of those options would trigger the same task.

    A solution would be to add a Tertiary and Quaternary App if the others are in use. And seeing how new android versions and manufacturers could add more contexts, it seems to me it would be wise to let the user toggle the number of Secondary Apps they have on their system. This would mean less dev work when, inevitably, a new context is added.

    Change the "active" task color to work better on greyscale

    Jonathan Moregård · 1 · Last reply by Colin Hemming

    I keep my phone on greyscale to make it less addictive. This makes it hard to see if a task/"task condition" is active (the green highlight) You can enable greyscale by Dev options -> Simulate color space -> monochromacy.

    Please change the color to make it stand out a bit more on greyscale. Or make it customizable.

    Rtl layout support

    Ben · 0 · Posted

    Hello, kindly support rtl layout, for languages that are written from right to left...

    I would like all menus, settings, tabs, events and tasks (etc) to be indented to the right instead of to the left.  Maybe a button in the settings that switch the layout easily?

    Dump %TRUN in the log when RejMaxQ occurs

    Wouter · 0 · Posted

    When the maximum number of simultaneously running tasks occurs (default 10) no new tasks will be started. The log will show RejMaxQ. Troubleshooting would be much easier if the log would automatically contain the contents of %TRUN at that moment.

    Also the toast that notifies the user of the RejMaxQ event is easy to miss. The rejected tasks can cause confusing misconfiguration later on. It is confusing to the user, cause their setup will misbehave, without them having seen the cause, leading to the user troubleshooting in the wrong place. My proposal is to make the RejMaxQ event toast dismissable

    Add support for Lineage OS features

    Niks Gurj · 0 · Posted

    In particular, support for Lineage OS specific settings would be nice to have. Also, this may cover a few more feature requests, like support for Lineage OS profiles.

    You will need Lineage OS SDK for all that https://wiki.lineageos.org/sdk

    Get Location v2 error: "Location was disabled"

    nickjedl · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hello

    I am having an issue with using Get Location v2.

    My device: Samsung Galaxy S9, Android 10, OneUI 2.5

    Tasker: 5.12.22 and it has all permissions.

    Location is definitely enabled on my phone and I am testing outdoors.

    If I use only Get Location v2 the task will return this error

    However if I add Get Location (v1) in front of it, it does work:

    Enabling High Accuracy on v2 doesn't work and isn't really something I want to do.

    I have no specific settings in v2, other than Last Location on Timeout and Enable if Needed there is

    Add a TimeOut feature to scenes

    Rich D · 3 · Last reply by Rich D

    This would add the ability to set a Timeout in the 'Show scene' action. It would function like all other time out options currently available in some actions. So it would block any tasks with lower priority from running.

    Possibility to create switch sheet

    I would love to see an option to create switches, without the use of scenes. It would be an useful addition to web screen for autotools (like the bottom buttons)

    Deprecated: 3. Party Apps Event: K9 Email received

    DDDanny · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    With K9 Mail Version 5.800, released some days ago, the event "3. Party Apps Event: K9 Email received" is no more availible because K9 will not raise it.

    The event was removed from K9 Mail. (https://forum.k9mail.app/t/tasker-k9-email-received-event-no-longer-working/1218/2).

    I suggest to remove the event from tasker or at least give an info when you select it in tasker to manually check that the K9 Version is below 5.800 or maybe tasker checks against the installed app version and hide the event.

    Workaround/new best-practice is to hook on the "K9 Mail notification" in Android.

    Problems editing large scenes

    Per A. Flåtten · 0 · Posted

    I'm having a bit of problems creating large scenes, that are supposed to use the entire screen. One thing is that I cannot create scenes that are larger than the screen not including the lower android buttons, but in addition to that they are rather difficult to create and edit, since the scene editor buttons are made invisible if the scene is to great. Would it be possible to edit a scene in for instance 75% size?

    Also it would have been great if apps using scenes were handled by Android as other apps, and not only as dialogs, in

    Action To Toggle Scenes Tasker Wide.

    Tyler T · 0 · Posted

    I have created a lot of scenes. Buttons that pop up on the left or right to take me to different menus (scenes) that I created. Of course I have a lot of different projects that have a lot of different scenes that fire at different times depending on conditions etc.. 

    So I had an idea. It would be so awesome if there was an Action under the "Scenes" category that could toggle All scenes off or on, and when toggled on, would put all the scenes right back where they were at previously. Not entirely sure if it's possible,

    Easy possibilities to control currently playing music by "Music Play Dir" action

    BenjaminKlaus · 0 · Posted

    If music is playing by the "Music Play Dir" action it would be great to have other actions to control the currently playing music, most important:

    • next song
    • previous song
    • play/pause song

    But also actions like fast-forward would be nice. I know it's currently possible to go to the next song by calling "Music Play Dir" on the same folder again, but this is not practical if there are many "Music Play Dir" actions for different folders and you want to have a single action to go to the next song everywhere.

    Maybe easier alternative: "Publish" currently playing music to the android
