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 really want to have a sub 2000 that controls channels 2001-2010. and a sub 1100 that controls all my Hippo layers starting at 1101. Subs are the only target that don't allow numbers above 1000 right? Keep the limit at 999, fine, but give us more flexible...

    It would be nice if you had more opportunities to change your fader configurations. So on a Gio or Ti, you have 10 Fader with each of them 3 buttons. For example: I want to have the opportunitie to say that the button on the really bottom is a go button...

    I would love to see a few assignable macro buttons in the iRFR app on the face panel (when on an iPad) to save some keystrokes. Plus the ability to label them. So I could have one for example that does "@ Full RemDim Sneak Enter"

    Mainly for touring/Long sit-down shows where you want a clean, bloat-free showfile. The idea would be you could select a range of record targets and then use a purge softkey to sort through those, deleting unused targets, removing unused channels from...

    It would be great if there was a lasso select tool (kind of like selections in autocad) for fixture selection in A3D to avoid selecting unwanted fixtures. Here's a screen capture of autocad selection: Thanks, Sam.

    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).

    In Magic Sheet Channels, linking to Target Color used to reference the Color Palette's Reference Color. This was especially helpful for CCT Color Palettes using non-standard color Parameters like CCT, Warm White, Cool White, and other combinations to...

    When there are both macro and strings in the PSD Execute column, the macros always come at the end, but unless your strings are very small you will not see them. Since macros are always short in length, consider putting them in front of the strings so...
