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

  • Is there any way to make other objects invisible?

    • 2 Comments
    I was thinking it would be great to be able to make other objects "one-way-mirror" style, like the walls. I have curtain legs and it would be good to be able to see through them on a side view. Is this possible, or possible on a later version? Edit...
  • Make fully customizable fixture build names sequence etc.

    • 0 Comments
    Alot of the time fixtures don't exist from film world. And being forced to select from default lists adds time to build your own. Please give us a blank slate. We add name sequence and limits ranges etc. So we know what we are controlling.
  • Record Minus Sub

    • 5 Comments
    Correct me if this already exists but I’d love to have a record minus sub option. Obviously there’s some workarounds like double tapping (select active) to select non sub active and pressing record or making all subs exclude from record, but I think just...
  • Record Minus Sub option without selecting sub range

    • 0 Comments
    I would like to have a record minus sub option where I don’t have to select the subs I’m excluding from record. I know I can hit (-)(sub)(x)(thru)(y)(record)(cue)(z)(enter) to record a cue without certain subs. Can we make a version where I don’t have...
  • +% and -% buttons in iRFR apps

    • 0 Comments
    Can +% and =% buttons be added to the iRFR apps? Given that the apps do not display the current level, the ability to increase or decrease a level by a defined percentage would be enormously helpful. Thanks.

    That would be great if we can add RAL catalog in color picker. You can choose not only Lee or Rosco, but also RAL colors.
  • Changing the Keyboard Shortcuts

    It would be really nice if you could change the keyboard-shortcuts, so that every user can have its own individual keyboard shortcut arrangement. It then would also be very cool, if you had access to the bumb, go and load buttons of a real console....

    The console will save in esf and esf2 modes even though changes have been made to A3D. If it is saving in one of those modes, it should issue a warning similar to the one you get when you try to load a show file and haven't saved changes. This is only...
