Re: Images watermark

I'd probably delegate watermarking to a remote machine, by sending the watermark text, then download the generated image. Possibly using a CGI script, invoking imagemagick, on a VPN'ed Linux host, sending text by http GET. But I'd be more likely to write text to an accordingly set up Automagic widge...

Re: Multiclipboard

Small extension to Martin's flows, which adds two buttons to the (expanded) notification: "Clips" reads clips from a file and offers those for selection. "Edit" appends current contents of paste buffer to that file. To remove entries, use a text editor (or delete clip file). Flow already contains th...

Re: Inline if

Quick scan of my uses of "if" indicates that about 80 to 90% of its uses is without "else". This is partly due to active avoidance.

Notice also that a construct, commonly written as

Code: Select all

if (x)
{
  result = a
}
else
{
  result = b
}
can alternatively be written as

Code: Select all

result = if (x) a else b;

Re: Inline if

"To bother enclosing anything" isn't necessary even now, apart from the tested condition itself.

Code: Select all

if (x) a;
is legal Automagic syntax.

Unix shells commonly allow constructs like

Code: Select all

x && a

Code: Select all

x || b
which need even less brackets, parentheses and the like.

Re: Folders for variables

But for flows the same is true, they can also be called from other flows, from widgets, or from other desktop objects. Still, they can be moved to "folders" (called "groups").

Re: Bluetooth Help

Catching the exception is not fixing the problem. You're merely hiding the symptoms.

Re: Bluetooth Help

My impression is that you experience a timing problem, possibly a race condition. I'd change the flow such that connecting both devices at virtually the same moment is made impossible. Example where this happens is here: 23.07.2016 08:29:33.593 [Flow1] Action 'Connect/Disconnect Bluetooth Device: Co...

Re: Tasker/Watchmaker Help

Have you checked both Plugin triggers as well as Plugin event triggers, that watchmaker shows in neither trigger?

Re: Tasker/Watchmaker Help

For variables substitution, check the "replace variables" box below plugin configuration. Uncomment the appropriate lines, with variables specified between curly brackets.
Chances are that you can call an Automagic flow as shortcut from the app. To do so, you'd use "Shortcut" as trigger, aptly named.

Re: Bluetooth Help

"with an error" is a bit vague, especially as you can read what error is produced. Not telling us what the "an error" is can only mean that you want us to guess. Ah, I got it - this is a kind of game, right?
