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

  • Feature Request: Shutter Pair States in Encoder Snapshots

    • 2 Comments
    Hey team, It would be amazing if encoder snapshots included the state of the shutter pair buttons. Having a macro that is able to control those buttons quickly without having to access the encoder display would be valuable, especially when not on a...
  • Patch: Copy show data not breaking By-Types

    • 0 Comments
    Copy in patch to not break by-types. When you copy show data it makes discrete data in all the by-type pallets, if the chan is following a leader it shouldn't take any data for that pallet across with it.
  • Moving targets in target lists should move custom direct select targets.

    • 1 Comment
    Howdy: During prep, I build a lot of custom direct selects; sometimes when we get into the theater, I want to move these around. It'd be awesome to be able to move the direct select tiles when i move the targets somewhere else. Either it could happen...

    In the same way there is the flexi option to see only partition channels, can there also be an option to see only Channels that are in A3D?
  • Use Console DMX outs as DMX ins

    • 0 Comments
    Just like the ETC Gateways, it would be nice, if you could use the consoles DMX outputs as Inputs as well and also map the DMX channels to sACN output channels, just like you can in Net3 Concert.
  • Cue list release time

    Add a simple option to have the cue list release in the same time as the cue down time, or have a deduced dedicated time in the cue list tab under the cue list. This feature is a huge one, especially for those of us that busk and have to constantly change...
  • Add "min" to macro softkeys

    • 0 Comments
    The Min enconder value button is not available in the macro editor softkeys. It would be nice to have that added so we didn't have to learn it via live then build a macro around it.
  • Scaling of grouped Objects in Magicsheets

    • 0 Comments
    Hello, it would be nice to be able to also scale groups of objects in a Magicsheet instead of only being able to rotate them. For example given the case that a Magicsheet symbol which consist of multiple parts, such as body, scroller and barndoor, has...
  • Copy Target Icons

    • 0 Comments
    Now that we have icons, would be great to be able to copy Icons. [Beam Palette] [1] [Copy To] brings up a softkey to only copy labels. Can we have a 2nd soft key for Icon to copy the icon only over to other beam palettes?
