It would be like creating a role in Java, but to perform custom actions with Tasker design with elements generally used when creating Tasker actions doing almost as Perform Task only with more customizations.

In the scene element, have a way to make the Landscape dimensions default to the same as Portrait. Currently, it is not allowing me to erase the values and leave it blank. It is time consuming to through hundreds of elements to input the W x H, for each scene AND each element. 

I was hoping to use taskernet to share some of my recent Tasker work but I can't because it uses a lot of AutoRemote. When I export my shares to XML and take a look at them it appears the AutoRemote Send Message steps include my unique IFTTT Webhooks identifier as well as the password I use for my messages. And as far as I can tell there's no way to use a variable for those particular data points so that info could be moved out of the action data and into variables (which aren't part of the share). Can

.I was wondering if it is possible to add a section in profiles (application) in order to select all apps of a certain type of apps the type may be news ,tools,maps,photograghy,puzzles ,… etc.

This is useful to make profiles such as one to enable wifi if a news app is opened or to enable silent mode if a certain type of apps is opened like games.etc,. 

By now, we can't interact with scenes placed on the lockscreen, because they are in overlay mode. But other applications, like Floatify for example, are able to display informations on the lockscreen, and allow the user to interact with it without unlocking the smartphone (like answer to a sms). Why is that feature not available in Tasker if it is possible in other apps?

I have Tasker 5.1 on my phone. When I check for updates, nothing happens. When I download the APK from the website and run it, I get an error "App not installed". HELP!!!

When creating a task that calls itself, pressing stop will become non functional after the first loop (pressing it will do nothing).

Going to homescreen and back to the app will allow the task to be stopped

I am new to tasker so please help me if i missed a step to get this work. 

bassicaly im trying to get tasker to detect the notification from one of my app and to perform a task to play media. 

My idea is once my door is open, my door sensor triggers and send a notification to my tablet. once tasker reads the notification about door sensor it must play a voice recorded. 

i have successfully uploaded my media play in task tab but my profile is not detecting the notification from my smart app in order to play

Would be great if tasker had the ability to launch apps in pop up view. Not sure if it would be possible but I do know that there is a "multi window" edge pannel for Samsung that can do this. Would be an extremely helpful feature for certain situations. 

It's great to have the red badges show the new actions after an update. But they go away after you open them to look at the capabilities. 

It would be great to have an option to highlight the new actions based on a user selected version number. It would be most helpful if the user could make that selection as an option in the display.

I need to record audio in Wav format (or another uncompressed format) without using external apps which can interface with Tasker.

I know we're talking about smartphones and not professional equipment, but for the same device, by recording Wav files with external app plugin, I get a much higher quality sound than Tasker. On the other hand, Tasker offers better control over recordings, file management, and does not require tricks with time delays to make sure the recording is saved.

Hello,

how to contact you to follow this point below?

I purchased the direct-purchase version a long time ago, but my license doesn't work on new Tasker versions. What can I do?

---> 2. You can purchase a new direct purchase license from me and use a special direct purchase version of Tasker that I'll send you. A new license is $4.

Using a Phone (call it phone1) i've created some settings. I've exported them to a xml file. I copied this xml to another phone (call it phone2) where Tasker is installed. But in the Tasker's settings (of phone2) I can't find the option Import from file (only from Google Drive). In order to enable the option "load from local file" (in phone2) i've to export dummy data! After the "fake" export the option "load form file" has become visible.

Serious optimum if the task had this letter on the sleeve with this clearly the taste of liberty of many limitations when performing more complex actions, I know that has the Run Shell action, but if the task had an emulator similar to the Termless without using any plugin and still to create the APK guard everything and the one. Despite that I know that and a very difficult idea to take this here this idea.

In general I prefer to have the wind down mode (monochrome display) enabled. While driving I would like to be able to disable this mode temporarily (similar to night light).

Tasker supports grouping of states in profiles from the beginning. The enter task starts when all states become active, the exit task starts when one of the states become inactive.

The notion of nested contexts proposed here changes the behaviour of the exit task only. Namely, contexts in a profile are ordered, there are broad contexts and narrow contexts, the exit task starts if a narrow context becomes inactive while all broad contexts are still active.

For example let's consider simple profile

profile HomeAtNight

broad state Time from 22:00 to 6:00

    narrow state WIFI Connected HomeAP

        enter task

A common use case for this request: 0) Freshly wiped device  1) Install and Launch Tasker  2) Try to restore recently downloaded local .xml backup file by navigating to Data->Restore Current implementation of the restore/backup feature is poorly designed as it is blocking this likely common use case. At least one other report of this "Feature" request was found: https://tasker.helprace.com/i356-manual-backup-only-creates-local-backup-and-restore-only-restores-from-cloud Original "Bug" Documentation: https://tasker.helprace.com/i462-tasker-bug-data-restore-user-local-backup-didn-t-appear-until-i-navigated-to-data-backup

Mimic some of Samsung smart selection tools (like fix a draggable image on the screen from a screenshot or a frame selection, or selecting part of the screen to save as screenshot) 

When running Tasker on Android 8.1 I noticed that there's a small bug that doesn't always display the UI in the language selected in the Preferences.

I set up English as Tasker language and my Android is in Italian. The change in the UI happens sometimes when resuming the activity and I'm able to reproduce it, see my attached video record.

Open Tasker in Oreo, push the multitasking, rotate the screen back and forth, return to Tasker and you'll get some parts of the UI in the OS language.

It happens on other apps, too; I think it is related

The context for the notification event does not offer 'Android-System' as owner application. Is it possible to make it available?
