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

  • No need for "lights active in mark range" error

    • 0 Comments
    Hello! I personally find it frustrating, when marking through various groups of channels, to get the "lights active in mark range" error. I love that I can select a group of intelligent fixtures that has only a few lights that need to mark, hit my Mark...
  • Effects Editor Has It's Own Tab

    • 0 Comments
    It would be nice to have the effects editor in it's own tab instead of located in the CIA. The larger screen space would improve the editing/creating process and leave the CIA available for other tasks.

    It would be nice to have an easy way of viewing a channel's recorded values without going into blind or affecting the live state
  • In Blind, All Keys (minus keypad) are Blue (Apex)

    • 0 Comments
    on the Apex, I know the keys can change colors, as shown in startup... I think it would be very useful to have all the keys go blue (or at least toggle the option) when you are in blind. Theres a lot of times where im staring at the keys, and not at the...
  • A3D Ambient Light Should be a Slider

    • 3 Comments
    Ambient Light in the Augment 3D viewer should not be 3 radically different hardcoded presets, it should be a slider, or at least a type-in float or int.

  • Per Direct Select Double Click

    • 1 Comment
    Instead of Direct Select Double Click being a device option having it as a per direct select option would make it a lot easier to start bringing it into workflow. Unfortunately, right now it's a very dangerous option to have enabled (One fat finger...
  • Pan/Tilt Inverts Should Be Enable/Disable-able in Macros

    • 1 Comment
    You can indeed toggle Pan/Tilt inverts in Macros currently, but you currently cannot do this predictably! I.E. in the macro editor you cannot Type: [Invert_Tilt] [Enable] [Enter] and it only Enable, if this is performed on a fixture that already has...
