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

    In an absolute effect, using the BPM softkey in the effects editor to change the speed of the effect respaces the whole effect evenly. This makes it so cannot have asymmetrical effects, like an intensity step where the on state is shorter than the off...

    Don't hide extra colours behind obscure colour combinations, instead lay them all out, add blue or even better a proper colour mixing system for macros, with the ability to recall macro colours from others.

    Howdy! I've been using curves quite a bit this week on my show - and I wanted to put my requests in a forum post. 1. I'd love a graphical curve editor - think dragging and dropping points to be able to make adjustments to the curve, rather than typing...

    Unless I am mistaken Merge Setup will Merge all of Setup except for Show Control, Partitions, Processors, and Zones. I would like to have more granularity so I can Merge just the User Settings, and not affect any of the System or Device settings. Ideally...

  • Treat RGB pixels differently from normal 'channel' license counts?

    Not so much a technical feature as a sales/marketing/product one, given the recent improvements in pixel mapping in Eos it would be nice to be able to take advantage of them in Nomad or smaller consoles with limited channel counts. The lower address...

    I'm a Film & TV programmer and I'm constantly making magic sheet lighting plots and exporting them to send to my gaffer. As far as I know there's two options for exporting these sheets. One in right clicking the magic sheet tab and saving a screenshot...

    Similar to this request , but for the channel view. I'm often frustrated when I set up my tombstone view so that I can see everything, but then it scrolls down so I can only see the bottom row. Either make it not scroll beyond the last channel or let...

  • Purge Unused Imported Gobos

    • 0 Comments
    Howdy: When merging in files that have been created through merging in lots of other parts, you get a lot of extra/unwanted gobo images. It would be great to have a button to remove these, as they travel along in files and add quite a bit of bloat ...

  • Renumber cues

    I would love to be able to renumber all the cues in the show to whole numbers. The cue list would then be much easier for the caller and generally look good. The workaround of moving cues to some other number is just too tedious a task. Especially...
