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

    I frequently save and open show files from a cloud storage location on my computer. To get to this location in Eos I have to click through: File>Open>Macintosh HD>Users>Z>Library>CloudStorage>Dropbox>Z>Shows>...... It'd be great if there were a faster...

  • Shift Query - repeat last query

    • 1 Comment
    Could Shift Query work to repost the last query you created into the command line?
  • Undo Sneak

    • 4 Comments
    When I need to use undo there is often a big jump in values. Sometimes, when I’m on a generator, that spike can cause a rev or sharp decrease. It would be nice to have a setting that gradually goes back when using undo.
  • Add Downloads to Quick Access Location for Nomad

    • 0 Comments
    When I download an asset I want in a magic sheet, it's in my downloads folder, this should be a quick access location like Desktop is.
  • Flash Manual

    • 0 Comments
    Similar to when you hit [Shift]+[Full] or [Shift]+[Out], I would enjoy a shortcut that “flashes” all of my manual data back to its background state and then returns it to the previous manual value on release. My intended use is, say you’re editing a...
  • New Flexi states - Selected By User X, Selected by other users

    • 0 Comments
    A new flexi state that would allow you to see what channels a specific other user has selected. A further enhancement would be the ability to see what channels all other users, that are not your user, have currently selected.
  • Standard Colors on the Command Line under Color 10/#

    • 0 Comments
    It would be helpful for the Standard Colors in the color picker to be accessible from the command line with the syntax of Color 10/#, so 2700K could either be Color 10/1 or Color 10/2700, and 6500K would be either Color 10/39 or Color 10/6500. I prefer...
  • Shift + Macro should post the macro keyword to the command line in live, for custom direct select assignment.

    • 0 Comments
    Hiya; as the title says, I think that Shift+Macro should insert the [Macro] keyword into the command line, so that you can assign macros as a target to custom direct selects (maybe there are other uses, but this one jumped out to me).
  • "Music rule" guidelines on cue (PSD) list displays

    • 0 Comments
    This is a simple one, but on a cue list display, it would be useful I think to alternate rows with a light and dark colour (not a contrasty black and white, just light and medium grey, say) so that the eye can easily follow across the screen. A good example...
