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

    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.

    I'd love to be able to put the alert time both as a field on my Active or Pending Cue magic sheet items, as well as an object in itself. Maybe the object could link to a cuelist, and it would show the next cue's alert time? Thanks!

    Re-arranging the tabs into new frames/window is a pain. A simple click/tap and drag to the new frame would make re-arranging your content very fast. Want your Augment3d with all your current settings in the other window, just drag that tab to the frame...

    When selecting a fixture profile, there are currently options to filter by "Show", "Manufacturer", and "Search". It would be great if there was another tile called "Patched" to filter the "Show' list of tile to fixtures that are patched in the showfile...

    I almost never use multiple cue lists in my small theater and I'd wager I'm not the only one. Being able to map the large faders as GMs rather than sacrificing on of my on board faders would be great,

    The fader displays on an APEX or the motorized faderwings take up a lot of space. Still I find that the information they give is not all that helpful. Most labels are to long to be displayed properly, especially the labels of list-items are unreadable...
