I've noticed that Active Edge is no longer allowing me to toggle NFC. My phone is a Pixel 2, not XL.

Worked on Oreo I guess.
Toggling NFC with public API got removed by google a few years ago.
It workdc till P only with root and with reflection (hacky way)....seems with Android P they even broke that.
Probably because of security reasons.

Can you try:

"adb shell service call nfc 7" to disable

and "adb shell service call nfc 8" to enable

Well I wasn't going to root my Pixel 2 XL simply because I didn't have the plethora of bloatware (Samsung) and pure android, but this mod single-handedly has convinced me otherwise. I will be purchasing a premium membership. Thanks!

DP2 users please join to test the new module: https://hangouts.google.com/group/rZC0gCQGisbV5KTx2

EDIT: successfully tested. Will update the magisk repo tonight.

FYI: Long squeeze is broken unfortunately. Google reafactored their code and moved some important stuff I need to recognize a long squeeze.
There is really nothing I can do about that unfortunately.

I have the May update on my Pixel 2 and long squeeze is working okay for me.
I am using ElementX and 64 bit Magisk.
Not sure kernel changes something or not.

AFAICS, there's no way to have a specific touch gesture trigger a Tasker event? When going to Configuration -> Manage Gestures, it lets me add a gesture and select "Forward to Tasker (Event Plugin)", but when actually going to Tasker to add a profile and selecting the Edge Sense event, the configuration only lets me choose between the various squeeze gestures, not the custom touch gestures.
Pics for reference:
Within Edge Sense Plus

Within Tasker

Select "Shortcut" as Action, then you can select Tasker and then its Tasker Profile/Task
