USB Remote v1.51

Tasker plugin functionality:

It is now possible to enable variable replacement when using "Type text" action (enabled by default) - you can use InputStick to type values of Tasker variables, for example:

Type action, text to type: Today is -%DAYW

Result, "Replace variables" enabled: Today is - Wednesday

Result, "Replace variables" disabled:  Today is -%DAYW

 

Synchronous execution is now also supported, by default each action has 60 seconds timeout to complete, you can change this value in Tasker after action is added.

It is no longer necessary to add "Connect" action - application will automatically connect if necessary. You should still remember to add "Disconnect" action at the end of the task (unless you want to keep the connection alive after running the task, or just wait for InputStickUtility to close the connection after inactivity timeout).

Note: you should edit your existing actions to enable variable replacement and synchronous execution. 

More info about Tasker plugins.

Widgets:

You can now create a widget for typing text from system clipboard using "type from clipboard action". It is also possible to automatically disconnect after (any) widget action is completed, but only if connection was initiated by the widget. If application was already connected, this option will be ignored.

Note: this option must be checked when widget is being created. It is not possible to enable this option for existing widgets: you must remove them and create new ones.
