Feature and improvement suggestions

Feedback from users like you help us shape and improve Eos for all productions. We receive a large number of feature requests and suggestions from many sources, including this forum. Your comments and votes help us understand which features you’re passionate about, but there are many additional factors which inform development prioritization for any given release.

The most helpful information you can provide us when commenting on issues is how a particular suggestion would help you. If you describe your use-case and how the suggested change would benefit your work, it lets us gain a much deeper understanding of the need behind the suggestion. Suggestions often have an impact on what we work on, even if we ultimately choose not to implement a suggestion exactly as it’s described. Our ultimate goal is to understand what you and all users need and to create solutions that meet those needs. Occasionally, that’ll mean implementing a suggestion as described, but it usually means working to understand the need behind the suggestion and how we can meet that need for as many users as possible.

While we endeavor to update and respond to popular suggestions, the volume we receive means there will be occasions when we can’t provide an update or response in a timely manner. For bugs and show-critical issues, please use our standard forums and support structures: https://www.etcconnect.com/Contact/Technical-Support.aspx

    Proposing the ability to turn on/off Automark on a list-by-list basis rather than globally. For example: Main list wants to be manually marked, so it makes sense to keep auto mark off. Secondary list controls only followspot color - would be nice...

    Please add "undo" to the magic sheet. At least esc key should disconnect any movement I have begun. If I start to drag something and realize I don't want to, currently I'm stuck with what I started and have to undo it by hand, sometimes by recreating...

    This is similar to one mentioned earlier, but a bit different. When using moving lights (over a turntable, for example), it would be great to be able to use an Augment3d tool to be able to track very specific paths. I would think that the console could...

    I think it would be really awesome to be able to have magic sheets on a mobile device. It might also be nice to have them be available on a web portal. -Campbell

    Right now, if you have a Fixture in Mode A and you want to change it to Mode F...you likely have to go back into Search, retype the name, find that fixture, expand the hierarchy, etc etc. Can be a big pain especially if you are troubleshooting with different...

    To my best knowledge there is no gobo search tool in the database window of patch in EOS Beta 274. This would be very helpful because on libraries like the Rosco gobo library there are a lot of gobos and I can't tell which is which.
