So, I'm trying to take a picture with Tasker, but I noticed that 90% of the times it doesn't work, for reasons yet unknown.

The biggest issue, tho, is that the "continue task after error" doesn't work. It just stops at all.

Authentication Dialog with background blured, like recents.

Because on WhatsApp, it's possible to see conversation behind Authentication Dialog.

It would be great if we could have local variables scoped at the profile level, so that their values would remain available to the exit task for the same instance if the profile.  Ideally this would include user-defined variables, event parameters, variables populated by Tasker with event-related values, and those populated by plugins.

Hello.

Actually, my device is an Xiaomi Redmi 8 Miui 11 (Android 9). When I use "Screen Capture Action", or "AutoInput Screen capture" in a task, allways ask permission to initiate the record, so I can't automate screen capture because of user interaction is needed. In my previous device (Moto G3rd android 6.0.1)  theese actions works fine.

Could you told me how I can solve it? 

I've attached screen capture showing the message. Sorry, it is in spanish.

Thanks in advance.

In reference to my previous post i may have the answer.

Back in the days when i created profiles and their relative tasks i was using the app with the language set to english and i still prefer to have english as default. Now, from time to time tasker decides on its own (???) to change language to italian (which is the OS language) and that causes all of my tasks to stop working properly. When i change language back to english everything seems to work again as normal. How do i prevent tasker from automatically switching languages?

Thank you

When Tasker is placed on the home screen, and Tasker Secondary is not on the home screen. When applying a change in Tasker. Then Tasker is replaced by Tasker Secondary on the home screen.

Just like the normal actions we can get guided into selecting the start and end points of a gesture, or even record it both at once. Having both the options of recording and individual point selection will be very convenient. 

Add possibility to pack color (#RRGGBB, aqua, red green, orange, ...) to a manual selected icon.

If you select an icon by "Image Select" and then switch to manual selection - the button next to the generic icon table - you get the URI of the previous selected icon but can't add any icon color.

Additionally "Image Selection" has no option to select a file by file manager.

Background:

I want to switch status bar icon by var if a condition is not/met. Color of status bar icon does not matter, but within the notification would be great.

Priority: both

Hi,

It could be appreciated to add "Notification Responsiveness" feature for Geofences in AutoLocation. Responsiveness can improve power consumption by increasing the latency of geofence alerts.

I'm pretty sure it was working some time ago, but no matter if I use the device name or MAC, it keeps connected. I tried unpairing it as well just to see what happens and it throws the error "Unknown error removing bond".

Is there any chance disconnecting devices will work again on Xiaomi devices?

I've been trying to manage my sip settings on my phone using Tasker. You see, I have some settings in my calling accounts. You can see them if you open your phone app then go to the menu and settings and tap calling accounts. I know that these settings are often locked out or grayed out or inaccessible. That's cuz the carriers don't want people using free voip and would rather those options go away. Anyway, none the less I wiped my phones firmware and went with Lineage OS, which works great. Except it seems that dispite my being able

Currently, if a task enables or disables a state profile while the relevant state condition is satisfied, Tasker recognises the state as being entered or exited. E.g. given a profile state %Var ~ true, if %Var is indeed set to 'true', disabling the profile triggers the associated exit task, even though %Var is set to 'true' still. The state has not been exited. While this may be useful at times, it's surprising behaviour, and if you're not aware it's how profile states function, it's difficult to isolate as the source of tasks not performing as expected.

I wanted to export some of my profiles and task as an app but I can select only one task as the launch app. I decided to have the launch task to launch a scene that helps me select which profile I need to set it on but also need homescreen shortcut of one task that when clicked, locks the screen (system lock). If app factory could embed widgets or shortcut  than that would help. And also package some external files like sound files in the apk created by App Factory. 

Tenho a versão paga (última do play store). Não estou conseguindo criar regras no estado ou evento, porque?

We can run Logcat via Code > Shell when permission is granted. However, it is easy to error the logcat command where the process will run away. e.g. typo "logcat notification" (a simple error) and Tasker will run logcat forever. We can pkill, but this can become an issue if Task limit is hit, Kill All wont kill the run away PID. Could there be a Logcat Action dedicated for this command please? That  way if a Kill All is done, it'll kill the logcat process too.

Thank you.

I'll add a screen shot when I am on my PC as you have to drag and drop them on this website, so I can't do it from my phone.

This might just be a bug in Tasker that needs fixing. But if it's not possible to stop get voice from failing, then a continue task after error is needed so that the situation can be managed, eg try again.

I think is a good idea the possibility to import/restore a backup.xml file to Tasker to load different configurations of Tasker. For example i send an sms with "load config 1" and tasker load the backup_config_1.xml saved in /sdcard/Download/.

is a very useful feature, because i have an android in another place, and i can configure and customize remotely.

Hey joao,

After I use logcat entry for fingerprint action, the bubbles of "Click to stop logging" every time I use multi windows. See video.

Thanks

Crazy idea in regards to the projects. What if you made it like a "dock" and "app drawer". Bare with me. So instead of scrolling right and left for projects you have a few (for me it's 6 before I have to scroll) projects always visible and if you swipe up on them like you would on a dock in a launcher it would open up an "app drawer" grid of projects.
