Remove Red/Green Indicator from If/Then/Else when Local Variable present
Anytime there's a local variable name present anywhere in an If/The/Else statement - the red/green indicator will never EVER light up correctly.
Including and even when using the step-Play icon to go through the Task step-by-step.
Therefore the red/green indicator should never show up whenever a local variable name is present in the comparison. It just creates clutter and confuses people newer to Tasker.
For those people who have used Tasker for a while - although we've become accustomed to just ignoring it, with a solution so simple, that shouldn't have to be the case.
I guess the ultimate suggestion

Add a tab containing all currently active profiles
Like the title says, a way to see all the currently active profiles without browsing every single project
doesn't really have to be a tab, anything that lists them

Add root permission option to "Raed file" functionality
I have a task that reads a file and uses regex to to get some data, but the file is located in root directory.
Adding option to access root files to read will help, right now i have to copy the file to sdcard and read it.
Plz add this functionality.

Simple Link To This Idea Site From Tasker itself
Simple idea. Most people may not know of this site to goce feedback for tasker or add in their ideas. Be nice if there was a button somewhere in tasker that would bring you to this site.

Pass app name/package as variable in App context
It would be helpful to pass app names or packages as variable to do task on them.

Stop enter and exit tasks as soon as state condition is changed
Option for state context profiles to stop enter or exit task as soon as the conditions are changed and start executing the other.
For example an enter task is running and the profile conetext is changed then the enter task is stopped and exit task is run at once, and again on satisfying context exit task is stopped and enter task is run.
Right now to do this the task has to be named and a stop action has to be added at the beginning of other. But doing this would reduce the clutter from naming the tasks.

More Easy Create Intents
I know that the Send Intent action is for advanced users but because it does not facilitate their creation with a button to show a list of intent patterns used in apps as Android.intent.action. (VIEW | MAIN | GET_CONTENTAND) he data such as date, extras, package, class and improve productivity when creating it is easy to end up forgetting something like that. I know that the plugins that make it easy to work this, to be sincere I think I'm very boring to make the user ending having to install several plugins to use with one or two actions if the

Vars/Variables tab accessible in the Task Edit menu
It be would awesome if the Vars/Variables tab is accessible in the Task Edit menu (may it be through swiping from the right/left or in any available way). Not only that it would help a lot of users which are fond of using multiple variables inside a task such as myself but it can also help in saving time in creating a complex task by checking the current value of the variables in the task without exiting the menu.

Option for buttons in AutoNotifications to immediately dismiss the notification
Most of the time when I press a button on an AutoNotification, part of the button's action is to dismiss the notification. However there is quite a noticeable lag between pressing the button and notification removal, since the process has to go from AN, to Tasker, through a task, and back to AN. On my Samsung s5 this takes a couple of seconds, but I'm sure it would still noticeable on newer devices too.
I propose an additional boolean option for each notification button: "Dismiss notification on button press"
The behaviour would be to send the specified command

Separate "on touch down" and "on touch UP" events for when the user taps an item in a scene!
Currently, there are "tap" and "long tap" options. But it's impossible to trigger any tasks until the user's finger has released the button.
I have some specific ideas that require actions to happen immediately when a button in the scene is touched, not just when it's released. I'd also like to be able to check whether the button/image/item is still being pressed, and trigger an "exit action" when the button is released (the current "tap" feature is basically an exit action for a button, so that's already there; just not an "enter action" for buttons)
I understand that it'd be

Recursive option in file modified event
It would be useful to have a recursive option in file modified event. This option would be used to guard not only the modification of a file in the specified folder, but also in the subfolder a of the folder and so on.

Updating icon standards to include 2 layers: BG and foreground
Hi,
I'm interested in seeing some updates to the icon system in Tasker App Factory. Apps since Oreo or Pi have a new icon standard. The "legacy" icon is still in use for earlier versions. The new standard, and the method of including icons in Android Studio, is to use a BG layer and a foreground layer with transparency. Two PNG's would be provided, and perhaps also a legacy PNG provided.
(The current icon configuration might not need too much modification to suit that last purpose, with the new icon config being "added" to the setup.)
I put up an

Support for LG's Dual Screen devices.
LG's Dual Screen V50 and upcoming G8x could use a little love. "Second Display On/Off, "Second Display Connected/Removed" (ie, Dual Screen Case Accessory Attached), and "Dual Display Case Closed/Opened/Opened 360°" would be helpful event triggers, along with the ability to specify if an event should trigger if the conditions are met on either screen, or on a specific screen. The Device can tell when any of these conditions are met, but there are no relevant event triggers that I can find in the Tasker Dialogues. Additionally the ability to target a specific screen when committing an action would be nice.

Add Timeout to "Ping" action
Ping action can get a delay to a website, so we can use that to test if the network (like a wifi you connected) is connected to the Internet, but when the network is not connected to the Internet, the Ping action won't stop for quit a few seconds.
So here is the suggestion, add timeout to this action, if the ping time has last for more than the timeout we have set (say 500ms), then continue the task.

Bluetooth Near State to have RSSI filter
Since we can now get RSSI values from the Bluetooth Info Acrion, why not allow it as a filler in the Bluetooth Near State?
This will enable use of any BT device to help geolocate the tasker device (or user) based on strength of RSSI.. Many interesting use cases:
- unlock pc when near pc
- start Spotify when near BT speaker
- cast to the right tv when in a new room
Bluetooth is getting so powerful that BT near is no longer near, so we need more granular customization!

Task: Selected apps
There is a List Apps task that already exists, however it returns ALL of the apps installed on your device.
What I wish to have is a task where I can select apps manually, and let the task return those selected apps and store them in an array by package name, app name and icon. Similar to App Info task's return value but in an array.
Why?
After the release of 5.9.2 beta, we now have the new feature called ADB WIFI, where we can run some root commands, my particular use for this is the app killing adb command,
