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

    Similar to how with moving lights we see an XYZ of where the lamp is focused at any time, it would be useful to input the focus position of conventionals with coordinates in patch rather than having to click and drag. It would also be great to see the...

    Hey guys, This is a request for a specific situation. Very often a gaffer will ask me to set an A and a B focus palette with movers to then move between in an effect. That’s easy enough with an absolute effect using focus palettes. However, the one...

    Just like the title says. We would really love to see the Scene labels as a little green line (or something) in spreadsheet just like in the PSD. Because we re-focus every light every day, it's critical we know when things are really used and not. Our...

    I have come to this requirement when I tried to mimic bump button behavior for multiple actions. My idea was to set multiple faders/subs on key press and go back on release.

    As you can probably guess by the request to add Color Temperature features, I work in the film and TV world. 90% of the time I'm using Color Temperature to control the color of our units rather than RGBAWetc. It would be awesome if I could select...
