Hello, kindly support rtl layout, for languages that are written from right to left...

I would like all menus, settings, tabs, events and tasks (etc) to be indented to the right instead of to the left.  Maybe a button in the settings that switch the layout easily?

For example if I copied a file using tasker's 'file action' , then it should refresh mediastore, so that apps can pickup the new file in the directory.

It can be done using:

am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE -d file:///sdcard/filename

(probably you might need to run the above in root mode in some phones

Refer: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17928576/refresh-android-mediastore-using-adb

If I have an image that is admittedly annoyingly bright *, with the DARKEST pixels around rgb(166, 155, 125), the black & white filter results in an all-white image regardless of what threshold I select. So even if threshold is set to 255, which is the maximum, there are no black pixels in the resulting image.

I figured the filter might incorrectly calculate the lightness of each pixel from its components, so I also tried to first filter the image to grayscale, but that also didn't help. But then I'm not sure if the grayscale filter actually changes the image

On Note 10+, strange issue with the "Cell Data" task 

Indeed, the task run succefully, but the only effect is visual change of the button in the notification bar parameters. Cell data still remain active / inactive as there is no change.

Due to the strange issue, here is a video for the problem : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xtWOWTw4a6roG9Ke569dT6iNiIsX-8z6/view?usp=sharing

A simple task on S21 Ultra 5G dosen't work. Tasker doesn't recognize "Google Pay" as an app, or better it doesn't recognize when the app is opened.

If I change Google Pay with an other app (not matter which) it works all fine.

The task should activate NFC ONLY if I open Google Pay and disactivate it when I close the app.

I'm on my Fire HD 10 (2021) tablet and whenever I try to add an a plugin the screen goes grey and I'm returned to task edit screen without anything added. I even end up rooting the device and same issue.

com.viacom18.tv.voot this app not showing in application context of tasker.

im using tasker on BlueStacks simulator but the task im running needs to get write secure settings permission

so anyone know the way ?

With K9 Mail Version 5.800, released some days ago, the event "3. Party Apps Event: K9 Email received" is no more availible because K9 will not raise it.

The event was removed from K9 Mail. (https://forum.k9mail.app/t/tasker-k9-email-received-event-no-longer-working/1218/2).

I suggest to remove the event from tasker or at least give an info when you select it in tasker to manually check that the K9 Version is below 5.800 or maybe tasker checks against the installed app version and hide the event.

Workaround/new best-practice is to hook on the "K9 Mail notification" in Android.

Hi there,

I'm facing an issue where I'm not sure if it's an issue of my phone (Pixel 3 with latest updates) or Tasker.

I created an task which switchs the background picture when my calendar shows that I'm having on-call for my company (State -> Calendar Entry). The on-call appointment is a bi-weekly recurring all-day appointment for 7 days. When the on-call starts, the background switchs as expected.

But during the week sometimes the profile becomes inactive for some hours. I added a log task with timestamps to the task to see when this exactly happens. But there's no

Phone ringing event only triggers on Blank, Any, or My Contact*. (The * is required).  Caller Name In (%CNAME) only returns GMail, never a name.)

The Phone Ringing event does trigger on phone numbers 555123456*  (Yup the * is required) and %CNAME will be GMail.

Phone Ringing Event triggering on Contacts Labels would be great!

Pixel 3 running Android 11 June 2021 update, Tasker 5.12.22.

Thanks,

John

To enable permission for toggle Airplane Mode only requires an ADB appops command be run only once. I have verified this using appops, that after device reboot, Tasker retains permission to toggle Airplane Mode without re-enabling ADB wifi.

Yet trying to toggle Airplane Mode in Tasker will fail due to ADB Wifi not being on. Tasker does not attempt to toggle Airplane Mode, even though it already has permission.

If Tasker can retain permissions, then enabling ADB Wifi after reboot appears unnecessary.

Thank you

In latest build of Tasker or Tasker factory sometimes i have problem with compiling apk which have third party / downloaded images in it. I used to use images as my app's background.. by the way i always use jpg format

I'm having a problem creating the apps in Tasker because when I restart android the nova launcher doesn't load the icon that was in the application exported in Tasker

Hi，dear developer：

An issue was observed that the display of a "TextEdit" created by action "Element Create" cannot be updated when the related global Var, Which is the content of "Text" of "TextEdit", is updated.

In my test, this issue does not exit if the "TextEdit" is created mannaully in the scene edit interface.

This issue was firstly appeared after I updated to 5.12. But it is still there when I go back to 5.11.

I am using "QuickTask" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.balda.quicktask) for simple quick settings tiles, and this has worked well for me for a long time. Since Tasker v5.12, clicking the quick settings tile no longer triggers an event in Tasker. I have tried reinstalling both Tasker and QuickTask and resetting Android quick settings via adb, but it still didn't work. It's only the event-triggering part of the quick settings tile which was not working; I was able to change the image and label of the quick settings tile using Tasker actions. I can also configure whether clicking the quick settings tile required an unlock,

Despite having a passcode on tasker, a user is able to use bypass the passcode using the search function to manipulate some of the tasks.

I used the "Get Location v2" function to get time from the return value %gl_time_seconds.

It works very well in Android 10, but the same task doesn't work in Android 6, %gl_time_seconds keeps unset while %gl_latitude %gl_longitude can work correctly.

Tasker Version 5.11.14
