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

    It would be great to be able to copy the position of one lamp to another, to speed up tasks such as creating a second lamp for a twofer, or orientating groups of lamps that share many position and orientation points.

    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...

    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.

    While in Partition 0, you're unable to select things on the cmd line- which also prevents you from selecting channels to flexi View Chans. Would be lovely if you could still flexi View Chans for fixtures not in your partition.

    It's becoming common to need to send MIDI triggers to multiple departments, each with their own cue list and needs. It would be nice to be able to configure multiple MIDI Tx Source IDs with their own MIDI settings (notably MIDI Cue List), so that gateways...
