    I would like access to more musical sounds

    Bill DeWitt · 2 · Last reply by Colin Hemming

    I know you can find the right values to make beeps play tune. But I want different instrument What I want to end up doing is have tasker generate a series of tones in a pleasing voice so that instead of meaningless notification sounds, I can let it auto generate a code out of pentatonic notes to tell me what's going on. 

    Maybe sampling? Midi? Oh, a point there, I don't want to have it hooked up to a midi instrument, this is for walking around. Perhaps the midi driver for android you mentioned attached to the MIDI Play command.

    Dialogs Close Scenes

    GlitchYou · 0 · Posted

    When I show a scene and in that scene there is an action that opens an activity, it is closed

    But I found that if I create another sena that calls this action, I can use it correctly, but this could be implemented to avoid creating this scene to make this workaround

    Action clone: Clone on drag+drop

    Tortuosit of Tapiola · 0 · Posted

    Idea for extending the new Action Clone. This is in order to create cloned entries anywhere in the task.

    The new button could behave differently. As a toggle. If pressed, drag+drop of commands could copy instead of moving them.

    Additionally: if more commands are copied, just copy. If one is copied, open it.

    But the more I think about it... We can already directly drag, the area is configurable. Maybe a second drag area would make sense, which copies instead moves.

    Clipboard monitoring makes keyboard to glitch

    User · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi. As always, huge thanks for continuing developing Tasker. Want to report bug. Latest 5.15.3-beta, Android 11 (LineageOS 18.1).

    Steps to reproduce: 0. Important: bug "activates" only after some time after Tasker was launched, like few hours 1. Create single task with any single action which use %CLIP variable, e.g. make Tasker to monitor it (via workaround, yeah) 2. While typing anywhere mark text and press Copy / Cut, e.g. change clipboard 2.1 Even enough modify clipboard via shell: service call clipboard 2 s16 "text" 3. For a second *any* keyboard hides and appears again (shown on attached video) 4.

    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 Bertie Beck

    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

    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.
