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

    I often want to look at DMX usage per universe before making a choice about patch actions. Since the space is otherwise just a blank screen, it would be nice if the DMX grid is always be displayed and navigable in Patch>Patch even when no channel is selected...

    I would like to see the colors saved as an x, y coordinate in the ProPhote Colorspace when stored to Color Palettes. This could be as a new way (like ByType) of storing (Universal colorsystem for instance). This way it is easier to exchange fixtures in...

    While flexi view channels is very useful, I feel that it can be a little cumbersome to setup and change. I think it would be extremely useful to have a “group” flexi state that references a group that you can set on a per user basis in user settings...

    When I download a random show graphic, it's in the downloads folder. Downloads should be a quick access location on nomad like Documents, Desktop, and Pictures.

    It would helpful if you increase the number of field items. 6 items are less for using parameters and categories. May the field items could dynamically.

    A setting to skip empty fader pages would be great. The ability to specify which fader pages show up on a wing would be even better.

    I find myself often making focus fans on groups of fixtures that are mirrored symmetrically. It would be useful if there was a softkey extension to invert the focus when copying values while creating focus pallets. I would propose it as 2 keys: {Invert...

    It would be great to be able to assign more than 6 Fields to a Magic Sheet Object. Target ID, Intens, Color, Focus, Beam, Next Move, Last Move, and Status makes 8 Fields. So my current workaround is to have multiple Magic Sheet Objects with the same Target...
