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

  • Add a "Full Screen" option to every tab for temporary Full Screen viewing which could then easily be minimized back down without losing your carefully curated frame sizes and positions

    While watching the A3d demo videos, and seeing the number of times (Rob?) was jumping back and forth between a smaller A3D frame in a series of frames vs wanting to look at full screen, I realized this is often a feature I want. With the addition of A3d...
  • Playback Go Button(s) adjustable debounce to reduce unintended double-taps

    • 5 Comments
    A suggestion posed to us by a student joining our EOS training classes: It might prove helpful to allow the end user to select a waiting time between one hit of the GO button, and before next press would register. Depending on the speed of cue triggering...
  • Allow [Query] {Marking} and {Marking} also for AutoMark

    • 0 Comments
    Query Mark and Query Marking currently only work with referenced marking. i would love to see those two query conditions also work with AutoMark. I assume that Query Mark should be the simpler of the two. it's those channels that show MK in the M cue...
  • Attach snapshot to user

    • 0 Comments
    It would be nice to attach a certain snapshot to a user. If you switch users, you,d go to the appropriate snapshot for that users favorite screen layout. As with encoder templates, if you do not fill out the users snapshot number in settings, it will...

    I have a show with a flown light box frame - a 16 bit RGBW LED driver for each of the 4 sides. Is it possible in Augment3d to create an object for this that will emit light?
  • Using Augment3d to create a pixel map

    • Coming Soon on
    • 3 Comments
    Use a selection in Augmented to create a pixel map or multiple pixel maps representing different layers of fixture in the z axis. This might also require for a 3D Pixel map feature to exist.
  • Feature Request: Automark-Off on per fixture basis

    • 1 Comment
    Dear people at ETC, I really appreciate having auto-mark functionality at hand. That said from time to time I stumble into situations where I would love to switch it off not for the whole Q but just for a (couple of) specific fixture(s). I know it´s possible...
