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 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...
  • Moving targets in target lists should move custom direct select targets.

    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...
  • Set accessible fader pages for fader wing

    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.
  • OSC-widgets for magic sheets

    An OSC-input viewer with filtering-options would be great. Some visualization-options, buttons, faders, etc would be even better.
  • Tags (for everything, but at least for palettes)

    This would be a great organizational tool. Allowing to quickly filter lists. Would also work great in combination with the search function. It would also open new possibilities when creating macros.

  • Custom Text Columns in Cue Lists

    I'm using the "notes" field as a second label to call out things like Video Triggers, etc. It would be cool to have the ability to have custom text columns that could be used however. Something like: Cue Label Video MSC Sound MSC 1...
  • User Specific Notes
