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

  • Magic sheet max screen usage

    When selecting a magic sheet the zoom to all function always leaves quite a large unused area around the outside. At this stage only way around this is to use snapshots after zooming to the desired size. A sizable frame indicating the edge of the screen...

  • Feature Request: Sort/Filter Show Category in Patch

    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...
  • Color Palettes apply to same fixtures with parts

    Maybe Im missing a setting somewhere, but I'd love to not be double doing my color palettes for Lustr 2s and Lustr 2s with Icues. The board thinks of them as totally different fixtures. I want to make a palette for the Lustrs and if they are used as parts...
