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

    Ok. Yes. Wireless nomad isn't officially supported. That said, I and many others use it to great effect every day and its become a valuable tool. Lately it seems that showfiles with involved A3D geometry fail to sync wirelessly, even on robust enterprise...

    It would be nice to have a Model Preview in the Fixture Model area--perhaps incorporated into the Physical Details section. This would save time when searching for a model that is close but not exact--especially if the "Generic" category keeps growing...

    Add a mirror flag so that a gobo image can be mirror reflected to match whatever is actually being projected on stage. I notice that b315 includes a Beam Edge parameter, which is presumably going to control image sharpness but isn't yet implemented...

    Should it be possible to do it in a live mode instead of going in the patch so it could be possible to follow a path. In patch I can't keep the lights that I need to reference on but just the one I'm focusing.....and it would be great if I could also...

    In Augment3d, it would be really great to be able to focus the conventionals using encoders for pan, tilt, shutters, etc just like focusing a moving light.

    I believe I am one of many users who keeps a running list of all the fixtures I’ve ever used at the end of my patch, to retain “By Type” palette data for future shows. So in Patch, when I select a new channel and press “Type,” the Show category shows...

    I often have LED lights with all their properties (eg color, zoom) recorded to a submster that I then set to Int Master so that the NIPs don't change when I bring up the fader. However, by doing it this way, I am no longer able to use the bottom button...
