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

    Currently, Nomad is effectively designed for a maximum of 100% UI scaling on a 1080p display. When Windows display scaling is set above 100% (such as 125% or 150%), parts of the UI extend beyond the screen edges and do not scale down to fit within the...

    I would like if the variables of effects could be edited while writing the command to start the effect. This would allow programmers to code faster by not having to start the effect and then later go in and edit any variables even if they knew that those...

    When adding channels to a running effect in a subsequent cue (e.g., Cue 1: Ch 1-5; Cue 2: Ch 1-5 + 10-11), the effect for the entire channel set restarts instantly. This causes a visible snap in 0 seconds, ignoring the effect's entry time. New channels...

    It would be really amazing if there were different types of color palettes, for example a gradient type of color palette. Within that palette you could then store 2 or more different color palettes to create your gradient. This way if you update one of...

    A less confusing name for the "Preserve Native" setting in Patch would be "Preserve Show Data". Obviously it should do the opposite when active. I've seen many people (including myself) breaking their heads over what it does even after consulting the...

    We often power up our system from a backup Nomad on the deck. It would be great to have a "Power On Multi-Console System" button directly on the welcome screen, rather than needing to click "Exit" on the "Searching for Master Console" screen to get in...

    Hej, today I was talking to a Hog-Operator and he brought up Auto-Palettes. I don't miss them that much but sometimes they could come in handy. This was a thing years ago in the forum (there's a post Anne was involded to) but nothing happened since...
