I have been trying to muck about with this myself for fun and had some success using Java tutorials online. However, it would really awesome if Tasker has Steganography features under the Image action feature, both encode and decode. Not only could images be embedded with data, but scanned for potential hidden text.

Hotspot related contexts like notify if someone connects to my hotspot, block someone(disconnect as soon as someone connects), these are some great additions for a hotspot context in tasker. 

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

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) 

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

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

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).

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.

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.

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.

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. 

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 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,. 

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

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. 

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.

Any thoughts of making a plugin for Raspberry pi interface?  It would be convenient to start or stop a python file remotely, or interrogate the pi for a variable value. 

Basically have some way to remove duplicates across multiple arrays.

With Variable Search/Replace you can store the results in another variable. What I wish to be able to do is to search an Array, and store the duplicates in another Array

While it would be ideal if my tinkering with profiles, tasks, and scenes always led to me cleaning up what I don't eventually use - the reality is that a lot of garbage piles up. It would be nice to search across all projects and:

1. Find what relates to only profiles that are disabled, such that it can aid in clean up (right now, you can see disabled in each project, but not easily tell all the tasks, scenes, and variables that could be deleted to clean those out),
2. and when searching for something you know is enabled, only find
