    I like to leave these task variables, profiles and projects in an order depending on the project so I wish I didn't have to remove everything to be able to reorder

    Google Drive upload creates duplicate folders in same parent folder

    Matthew · 1 · Last reply by Goonie Goonie

    Hello,

    For some reason it appears that when specifying a remote folder on Google Drive, it does not attempt to see whether that folder already exists. In the root directory (My Files), I have a folder called project which has subfolders containing various projects. When I put the following entry into the remote folder field of the Google Drive Upload task...

    project/tasker/tracker

    ...there's the expectation that the tasker folder would be created in the existing project folder and then the tracker folder being created in the tasker folder. This does not happen. Somehow, Google Drive API seems to allow duplicate

    Faster scene destroy

    Nikolas · 0 · Posted

    Hello,

    I have 2 scenes that show only on AOD (1st) or when lock screen is up (2nd) and are set up to be destroyed on exit, however they linger for about 0.2-0.3 sec after the phone is unlocked on top of home screen. Is there a way to destroy a scene faster? (PS Samsung S20, have tried already to use the Screen unlock event and to hide scene before destroying, no result). Thank you!

    Calendar data not found in TEST APP

    Eric Foecking · 7 · Last reply by João Dias

    I migrated my phone from a Samsung S10+ Note to a Samsung S22 Ultra over the weekend and have discovered I no longer get any output for the TEST APP for the Calendar actions.  This had worked flawlessly and reliably on the Note for the 3+ years I had the Note.  When I run the 

    TEST APP - CALENDAR/DESCRIPTION/LOCATION/TITLE returns blanks for the arrays even when there are both interval and all day events to report.  

    Using the Calendar state to trigger a PROFILE seems to find all the calendars and trigger appropriately.  

    ANY insights or options to try would

    You can choose what contexts when not true will trigger exit task

    Thatcher · 0 · Posted

    You would be able to choose if any context is not true the exit task is ran or if only selected context can run the exit task when not true. Customizable per profile.

    Failure to assign non-default TTS on first "Say" command

    Fmstrat · 0 · Posted

    Using the attached task, the expected behavior would be:

    • Say "Test one" in `com.google.android.tts:eng-gbr`
    • Say "Test two" in `com.google.android.tts:eng-gbr`

    However, if you let the device sit for a while (~2 minutes) and run this task, you instead get:

    • Say "Test one" in default Android TTS
    • Say "Test two" in `com.google.android.tts:eng-gbr`

    Device: Galaxy S9+

    Android version 10

    This could be related to https://tasker.helprace.com/i234-tasker-say-voice-engine-bug, but I chose to post separately to not conflate a 3 year old report.

    Parse/Format DateTime linked to wrong documentation

    Anthony · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Parse/Format DateTime help is linked to https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html for documentation on the formatting codes to use. However, using e.g., u gets an IllegalArgumentException. From the exception it appears Tasker is using Joda, so the doc link should be https://www.joda.org/joda-time/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html instead.

    Limit/tidy auto backups

    Colin Hemming · 0 · Posted

    I bought a new phone 3 months ago and decided to rebuild my Tasker setup, which had years of patches and old ideas. The automatic backups have, so far, created 737 backups, 127MB, which is not sustainable or necessary. If nothing else, it would be easier to tidy up if they had a name such as TaskerBackup20220220163212.xml instead of being in hundreds of confusingly-named directories, each containing one file, all with the same name!

    Auto XML backups corrupted

    Colin Hemming · 2 · Last reply by Colin Hemming

    I have just tried to read the most recent automatic backup XML, but it's not a valid XML file. Manual files created are fine, but the automatic ones have no carriage returns (not critical, but irritating) and the tags have missing spaces, making them invalid, for example: <TaskerData sr=""dvi="1"tv="5.14.6">

    MultiSim support for phone states/events

    It would be great if you could choose the slot for the states/events for Phone, instead of just using the default.

    Monitor preferences for display on should also be the same settings for onCharging

    salas · 0 · Posted

    It would be really nice if the monitor preference/settings for displayOn could be also used for onCharging. I need quick response for the sensors when using android auto, but since the display is off apparently the settings in use are the ones for display off.

    Google Calendar Entry - State in Profile

    Chris · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    I created a profile that detects if a calendar event is active using the State>App>Calendar Entry function.  It has worked for a number of years.  This past week it stopped working.  It is not detecting when the event is active.  I tried adding a new calendar to the Google Calendar and accessing it through Tasker and it does not display.  I have also tried toggling the calendar permissions in Tasker and that has not helped.  It seems Tasker is not accessing the Google Calendar at all.

    Alert > Popup Creates Scene Popup Conflict

    Mike Rubin · 3 · Last reply by Rich D

    Using the Alert > Popup creates a scene named "Popup".  This creates a conflict when trying to import any other project that also has a scene named "Popup".  Since scene names must be unique, no one can import my projects from Taskernet for this reason.   

      

    Perhaps create a scene with a random name that is unlikely to be in use elsewhere for Alert > Popup, or allow duplicate scene names across projects?

    Scene map profile

    Thatcher · 0 · Posted

    Could you make it so that there is an action that will pull up the location map in context allow you to choose all those options then have it so that you have it as a profile. I want this becuase I want to make an app where if you are at a location you select it will trigger and I want this to be up to the user to decide the location.
