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

    Are there any plans to use GDTF/MVR in Eos 3.0/Augment3D? I know Vectorworks support is coming but seeing as Augment3D is not a full replacement for things like Vison and Capture it would be nice to use one "standard" to go between Pre-Viz and Show.

    I choose the Square for a Channel. Give this square the color green for 100% at this Channel. But i can´t give color red for off for this channel. For On-Off-Switches it can help see the status better.

    A lower priority inhibitive sub should not be able to reduce the level of a channel controlled by a higher priority cue/sub. Ex: Cue list 1/ is prio 4, sub 1 is an inhibitive with prio 3. Sub 3 should not be able to change values in cue list 1/

    Hey, It would be nice to have a progress indicator/bar on show archive backup, sometimes it can take a while and feel like the console is hanging and you don't know how much longer you have to wait. Thanks, Tyler
