    Automate merging calls into a conference.

    Muhammad Majid · 0 · Posted

    Hi,

    Requesting feature to make 2 calls merge into a conference call.

    Here's what i'm trying to achieve here.

    I have an expensive call plan which allows me to make unlimited local and international calls. The only way i can let my wife use it for international calls (without her having access to my phone) is to give her a local call, make another international call, and merge them into a conference and let her talk to her heart's content.

    What i'm trying to achieve is to automate the conference call based on the sms so that she could do

    Ability for Tasker to keep scenes looking the same no matter the screen size

    Tyler T · 0 · Posted

    This is a must but also could be tricky. The problem with creating scenes in tasker is that device screen sizes can vary. This can make it a huge pain to create scenes on a large phone and then transfer them to other devices or vise versa. For example: Creating a scene that looks good on a Note 8 and then transferring it to a Galaxy S7 Edge. Scenes on the S7 Edge will look cramped together or the text sizes might be wrong. Makes it a pain if you have multiple Android devices with varrying screen sizes.

    Add comment field to Profiles

    mbefore305 · 2 · Last reply by Tasker Pro

    To document what a profile does and what is triggered by it would make life easier. Similar is already possible in a task to describe what it does and what input it uses.

    Scene Tasks Management

    roizcorp · 0 · Posted

    I created an "app" in a form of a scene, I run in as Tasker shortcut. There are many elements, each can run multiple tasks depending the context and the action (tap, long tap etc.). Creating it was one of the more difficult projects I created in Tasker for the following reasons: For every edit I need to do multiple steps in order to test and debug (i.e.

    1. hit back numerous times to get out of scene editor
    2. start scene - usually dedicated tasks with at least "show scene" action
    3. operate the element
    4. destroy/hide the scene
    5. show run log
    6. identify

    Autoimport Projects and Profiles

    raddacle · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    While there is an import action to tasks and entire configurations, there is no way to import profiles or projects. Being able to autoimport profiles and projects would allow us to keep family member's devices updated through dropbox or google drive syncing/sending.

    New run log option to filter and search for Tasker ID numbers

    Rich D · 2 · Last reply by Rich D

    This will go with the new "Search Tasker " option found here

    https://tasker.helprace.com/i839-new-mag-glass-search-tasker-option-search-by-tasker-id-number

     

    New run  log option--

     A long press in the ID column will now offer the options to

     ---Filter on that ID number

     -- ** Search Tasker By ID Number ** 

    which will open the tasker search function and search for that specific ID number.

    Productivity. Tasks UI long click on second action to select all in between

    Steve Waring · 0 · Posted

    If just one action in a task has been selected by long pressing on it, allow a second long press on a different action to select that one, and all the actions in between the two actions. Like Shift+Click on a list in windows.

    This would be so much easier when there are quite a few actions to be selected and you have to scroll the list.

    Support full screen scenes on devices with screen cutouts

    Bryce · 3 · Last reply by Davie Lam01

    It would be nice if Tasker was capable of displaying scenes in full screen including behind any notches and camera holes. Right now there's no way for a scene to extend all the way to the top and bottom of a screen if the phone uses a notch or hole-punch for the front facing camera.

    Battery usage report

    Kristian Tigersjäl · 1 · Last reply by Richard Kemp

    Tasker is usually battery friendly but some people write incredible and large things which may end up using some relevant amount of battery. A battery report built into Tasker would be great. It should list how much battery each task has used of the total battery Tasker used. Preferably also the battery impact for monitoring profiles etc. Whatever details possible to add.

    Save Option in Task

    Lawr · 0 · Posted

    If you are editing a task it would be nice to be able to save changes directly in that view. 

    I see variations on this request (autosave, save on exit, etc.) but what would be really helpful for me would simply be the ability to save a task while in edit mode. I've lost changes many times. When building or  troubleshooting a task I am often in it for a long time and needing to back out and save, then re-enter then, back out, then save... While also running the task and tweaking actions. If there are related tasks that

    Allow profiles with no associated tasks.

    Noel Yap · 3 · Last reply by Noel Yap

    Doing so would allow conditions to be named for easy use only for Profile Active State triggers.

    The current workaround it's to have such profiles associated with a "No Op" task.

    Is it possible to do a little something with the main screen Ui, specifically the + in a circle on the bottom right that lets you create new profiles.

    H Wolfe · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    The screen shot shows how the icon half obscures the last section on the bottom of the screen. To be honest the whole placement looks a bit bodged, there is lots of space in the title bar for that icon (between the search icon and the Tasker word) Wouldn't it be a better use of space to insert the + icon there?

    Another alternative then would be to place the + icon before the house icon on the bottom row with a separator between. The point being that the + icon isn't obscuring any other items or text like it

    Don't reset action conditions when changing the action

    Richard Kemp · 3 · Last reply by Stefan

    Problem:

    Per-action conditions set in the "If" section at the bottom of the action edit screen are reset when a different action is chosen using the "switch action" (anticlockwise arrow) button at the top of the action edit screen.

    When this would a problem:

    I have a block of if/else statements, but I want to add a new condition and result as the *first* possibility in the list to be checked. This means I need to change my 'if' to an 'else', and put a new 'if' before it. However, when I change the 'if' to 'else' I have to

    Option for 'IF' and 'FOR' actions to have 'End If' and 'End For' actions attached right below when created.

    inguscrowe · 1 · Last reply by Matt Burns

    When I'm creating a task and use an 'IF' or 'FOR' action I always have to immediately go back and create the 'END' action accompanying it because if I don't the rest of my task falls into the IF statement. This is really annoying and it has on several times screwed up my tasks and I don't realize it till I'm already using the task in real use cases.

    Many times I have multiple If statements nested inside each other and I loose track. So it would be great to have like a checkbox option to create the 'END' action

    Add support for more SQL directives in SQL Query action

    SmartPhoneLover · 1 · Last reply by StaffanT

    Hi Joao, can I ask for adding support for new SQL directives to the 'SQL Query' action?

    The main one I was looking for in a project I'm working on is: DROP TABLE. (fails reporting issues with db write permissions)

    And, if possible, would be great if you could add more than the one I wrote you before.

    Only the following are currently supported when Pent added that action: INSERT INTO, UPDATE, CREATE TABLE, DELETE FROM, ALTER TABLE

    Thank you ;)

    Add the ability to move between actions within action editor UI

    SmartPhoneLover · 0 · Posted

    Hello Joao, I would like to request something that could be useful for some of us, overwall if we have many projects into Tasker (+1000 actions). It will help us to navigate between all the actions from a task, without the need of going back, and load the next/previous action again. It will also prevent loosing too much time (1-4 seconds) when Tasker has to load all the elements from UI editor, mainly for those phones that are not much powerfull as them would need to (CPU). So, below you have a picture as an example of what I'm talking
