V5.43 - Feedback

[LinerSeven]

Hi, @MacroDroidDev,

Thank you release v5.43.1.

I have one question,
Which screen exactly is the "Dim screen"?
Is it the Set Variables screen?

Best Regards,
Liner Seven,

 

[MacroDroidDev]

Dim screen refers to the Dim Screen action which puts an overlay over everything else that will force the screen to be dimmer.

Hi, @MacroDroidDev,

>that will force the screen to be dimmer.
I see! So Dim!
I understand it well now. Thank you very much.

Best Regards,
Liner Seven,

In macro editor when making a search, every first line found is hidden by the now permanent Actions title line: just scroll one line to make the highlighted line appear...

In MD 5.43.4 Stopwatch triggers don't fire at all (at any time)...

In MD 5.43.4 Stopwatch triggers don't fire at all (at any time)...

I just tested it and it works correctly for me, in a macro only with a stopwatch trigger with some simple action, does it not activate either?

Hi Josué,
Let me send you an example that doesn't work for me...

Stopwatch trigger doesn't fire at 0:00:05 (no sound and stopwatch keeps on running)

 

[MacroDroidDev]

@Dm114 That macro doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but I am certainly see it stop at 5 seconds and reset to 0 when I start the stopwatch manually from the stopwatch screen.

@Dm114 That macro doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but I am certainly see it stop at 5 seconds and reset to 0 when I start the stopwatch manually from the stopwatch screen.

This sample macro is part of a longer one where the purpose is:
1⁰) Start stopwatch
2⁰) Run some actions (not visible here)
3⁰) Run other actions (here playing sound) when time elapsed
4⁰) Stop Stopwatch for a further use (with another duration programmatically set by a variable instead of a constant)

I added Floating text to see stopwatch running and see that nothing happens at the end of the specified duration...

Is there anything wrong in this sample?

Is there anything wrong in this sample?

The reset and restart at the top is pointless because the IF statement always fires so the StopWatch reset will always be called. But this should not stop the StopWatch trigger firing and in my case I do see the trigger firing without and issue when I start the StopWatch manually,

I agree with you @MacroDroidDev about reset/restart at the beginning but, as I explained, this macro is part of a bigger one with several other triggers (not only stopwatch) to run the original macro.

Let me submit the original macro via the troubleshooting procedure to check whether it works with your own configuration.

Thanks in advance for checking because stopwatch trigger doesn't want to fire in any way on my side (manually it works fine)...

Recently, Updating macrodroid version 5.34.x causes the tile to be unusable and the tile icon is missing.

Don't know how to show it but I've been having intermittent issues with the cancel macro action I only ever use it in relation to the macro it's currently inside of. I tried to make a test macro demonstrating the issue but then I couldn't recreate it, don't know if there's anything that would be easy to find in the code in that regard.

I don't know the exact version but maybe the other versions after the the first(i.e This bug is not in the 43.1 version) . In this version without doing any hard activity which requires more RAM, MD doesn't respond and the display message "MD is not responding" and the options like Ok and wait is displayed too.

There are fixes in the new beta, please try the new 5.44 beta. AlsI see what your system log says in the green tile

This happens even when MD is disabled.

For obvious bugs, please use report a bug in troubleshooting section with a clear description.

For other issue and discussions (related only to this beta), please leave all feedback here.

I am unable to do this as MD is saying to update it but after updating I am getting very much problems by bugs.
After the v5.43.0 in user prompt, when you try to enter words then MD is hanged and the options "not responding" is shown. This happens very frequently and this bug is indeed in the 5.44.4 version
