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

  • Could the A3d import window let us map a user field to Edge so we can set that in VW?

    • 0 Comments
    Because, at the moment, merging in A3d is an all or nothing affair in patch, I think many of us will be using the import method as opposed to importing in an existing Augemented rig. That means trying to get the VW export as detailed as possible, to leave...

  • Keep Channel Number when Cutting and Pasting Magic Sheet Objects in Same Magic Sheet

    • 2 Comments
    It would be nice if I could cut and paste a light in a magic sheet and have the light keep its channel number, or at least give me an option to choose that. Currently it changes to a new number when pasting. This would be useful in the film world where...
  • A3D - Ability to Ignore Addresses in VW Import

    • 0 Comments
    I might be missing something but it seems when you import into A3D from VW 2020 there is no way to ignore the addresses of the incoming VW file, which is mostly an issue because it will knock out the patch in EOS if you've made a mistake in VW and there...
