 |

I am trying to get Tasker to help me load CA automatically when I press on one off my Goggle Navigator destination shortcuts.... but I am failing miserably.
Can anyone with Tasker knowledge give me a helping hand. |

Please be more specific. What does "failing miserably" mean? Nothing happening? Getting a FC?

| Sorry I should have expanded. If I set Tasker to open CA when Navigator opens (via a specific destination shortcut) then CA stays open but Navigator seems to close. |

Do it the other way round. Start CA first, then Navigator.
You may also want to try the built-in function in CA, rather than using Tasker.

| It would be so much easier to start Navigator first as I have the short cut keys on my phone. eg home and work. |

Unfortunately that's not how Android works. If application A launches application B then application A automatically gets suspended unless it is a service. Which Navigator isn't.
