Can we do toggles?
Like for example.. lets just say a wifi toggle.. I have an image in which I would like to put it at opacity of 65 and when I tap on it to turn it on. it will become an opacity of 100..
Are there any threads that teach how to do it?

This is only possible if you have Tasker. Zooper currently has no built-in function for this.
I think there was a tutorial on Zooper/Tasker integration but I'll have to look that up. If there is not, I'll put in on my (ever growing) Todo list.
Actually you can. This is what makes Zooper so good, much better than the other custom widget app.
Insert your bitmap and set the opacity to 65
In the advanced parameters enter
For wifi connected
Code:
$#NWSTATE#=2?[bo]100[/100]$
For wifi on but NOT connected
Code:
$#NWSTATE#=1?[bo]80[/100]$
change the value between [bo] to your desired opacity

Yes, that would work to display the current state of wifi but his question was if he can do an actual toggle that switches the state of the wifi when touched (and then display it). That is currently not natively possible in Zooper.

Oops, you're right. Zooper cannot toggle any settings. You will need another app to do that function.
billab0n6 - you can use an wifi shortcut app and link to it from Zooper's ontap action. I'm not sure how to use Tasker but Trigger (aka NFC Task Launcher) can create shortcuts.

Tasker and Zooper integrate very nicely.

Tasker works really well, when you know how to set it up right. I already used it in my setups
Tasker seems very very complicated to use.. I do know seeing them in the forums.. alot of advanced users are using them but from the way I see them talk about it.. it seems quite hard to set it up. .. sigh

You can also use More shortcuts by chYK - available on play store - just link to it in on tap shortcuts. Hope this is helpful to you.

I have a n00b-like question, and I am ashamed.
In apps, for many of the current roms, there is a "Power Control Widgets Config" app.
WTF does it do?
I would have thought that it would change settings in the "Power Control" android widget, but it does Nothing for me...
Or perhaps in the notifications dropdown settings? Nope, not there either.
I've never seen it do a damn thing.
What critical piece of obvious information am I missing?
Flame away.

I think it may actually be a widget. I haven't seen it in a rom, but it could be. Try long pressing it on a home screeen and see if anything happens.

That app works for me. It is to configure certain settings in the notification toggle Widgets. I use it to set the sound to do silent/vibrate/sound. I also set the flashlight to normal with that, and also the brightness settings.

Ah! Indeed sir, you are correct.
Since my dropdown does not have the brightness toggle, I did not make the connection. But since I was able to change the toggle color, I can see that this does indeed config that feature.
Is this a scenario where I have to be editing some .txt file to change the toggles?

Yes, exactly. If you wanted to use the brightness toggle, or any toggle, you'd need to edit the widget.txt file (if you're on sense). If you add the brightness.toggle, and the flashlight toggle, then the app will configure how those toggles act for you.

How do you make a shortcut to the WiFi settings on the desktop? In the other Android, we were able to make shortcuts to any setting, was that removed in ICS?

Go to widgets.There is a widget called Settings shortcut.Move it to your homescreen and you are going to have the menu of available settings.The last one is Wifi

Oh, so that's how it's done now. THANKS!
Hmmm, I noticed that there are no "direct" shortcuts available anymore, is this true?
Kinda sucks cuz I use Simi Clock and wanted the battery launcher to open up the Battery Setting screen.
I use widgetsoid to add toggles to the notification bar, which will also launch wifi settings directly when pressed. (or any other setting you want) it has a widget too.

I want to make a tasker task that will start/stop LMT launcher service when the expanded desktop is enabled/disabled, but I'm a super noob when it comes to tasker, and only understand very basic stuff. Does anyone know how I would go about that? I think it's a task that a lot of people would enjoy! Thanks!
I'm not even sure Tasker could recognize expanded desktop because I don't think it's a stock Android feature. Believe it's more of a mod.

I was kind of thinking the same thing, but at the same time, I've seen people make variables for some crazy, obscure stuff, so I cant help but feel like it's possible somehow. I just wouldn't even know where to start looking.
I've wanted to do that for forever, but I don't think it's possible

I use both and an uncertain how to do this. Are you assuming it's possible, or do you know how?
I'm no good with making variables. So far all I've been able to do is create a widget that launches lmt and expanded desktop. The problem is, it just takes you to the lmt menu and you still have to start the service manually.
maybe it just isn't able to happen, I don't know...
I am usually running paranoid android, and you van set certain apps to trigger expanded desktop on launch. I just thought it would be cool to also have a task that started lmt service at the same time, then ended it when you disabled expanded desktop. I mean... Seriously.... How awesome would that be?!?
Tasker expanded desktop

Under the Task Edit window, select Plugins -> Secure Settings. Then in the Secure Settings screen, select Config, scroll down to the "Custom ROM" section (should be right at the bottom), and select Expanded Desktop. From there you can select ON, OFF, or TOGGLE.
Remember to set an Exit Task if you just want expanded desktop for certain apps!
slim rom has this option built in... =]
As the title says, I want to use Tasker to hide my status bar, and temporarily reveal it when my finger is over the proximity sensor. The sensor part of it works fine but I can't find a method of toggling the status bar that Tasker can use.
I've tried:
-The native status bar option in Tasker which doesn't seem to work on this device
-SystemUI actions: I can use the SecureSettings Tasker plugin to run activities. Which means I can toggle the navigation bar fine but the status bar does not seem to be an option
-Hiding the status bar in Apex launcher only: I can add a shortcut to it on my homescreen but Tasker doesn't seem to be able to call Apex actions. I'd prefer not to use this method as it would only work on the launcher
Essentially what I'm looking for is an app that toggles the status bar and has an activity that I can access through Tasker, that lets me toggle it.

Thanks in advance for any help!
I know this is probably not what you want, but with Nova Launcher you can hide the status bar and assign a simple gesture to toggle it.
I've now got it working with the Apex actions using a different plugin but as I said it only works on the homescreen. Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply... You're right in that it's not what I'm aiming for, I can do the same on Apex but it's less fluid than using the sensor. I also want a system-wide kind of thing that will work everywhere rather than just the homescreen.
If you have the "expanded desktop" option in your rom, you can use an app called "Locale", with a plugin called "Secure Settings", to trigger the expanded desktop by turning the phone facedown. That may not be quite what you're after, so another thing you can try is an app called GMD GestureControl. I'm pretty sure that has a fullscreen option in it.

I've tried GMD, but it's too laggy. Secure Settings works on Tasker as well as Locale but the expanded desktop feature isn't there.
I don't know if I'm working this right. But basically is it possible to make it where if I click on a certain part of the widget it actually changes it to a different widget. example, so you have a clock widget that has the temperature and your cell signal. When you click on the clock it changes to another widget that is just the clock

That's currently only possible if you use Tasker to setup a task that changes a variable and pushes that variable back to Zooper. You can then use that widget to control the visibility of the modules in your widget. You would then have to use that task as an OnTap action of your widget/module to toggle between the two "versions" of your widget.

Any way you could point me in the right direction. I just got Tasker a few days ago and to be honest it's a tad overwhelming. Maybe just a nudge in the right direction??

alrighty, first. thanks so much! second, is it posable to have this also effect things like text? so, i can have a clock in one position when x=1 then have it in a second position when x=0. or just have it make it where when on 1, it appears and on 0 it disappears.

What you use it for is up to you. You'll just have to substitute the options you need like [ox][/ox] for the horizontal offset or [c][/c] for the color instead of the [bo][/bo] as in the example I have in the original post.
