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

    • 3 Comments
    When I highlight a fixture, it's very annoying if it and/or other fixtures keep flashing. You can use the highlight and lowlight presets to squash strobe, but not effects. And because highlight rem dim only affects intens, you can't even stop strobes...

    I can use `Channel @ +/- Level Enter` to modify a channel up say 20 points from wherever it currently is, I think submasters should be able to use the same syntax. As part of my break macro I want to automatically glow the house lights, but the best...

  • A3d Scanner App

    Hi, first of all: The app is great! However, I already had the following three wishes: 1. It would be great if models created in the app could be further edited or expanded. 2. It would be nice if you had the option to mark the "Focus Palettes...

  • Custom Direct Select > Command

    In addition to the Button item, it would be really helpful if we had a command item like in Magic sheets, with the same label and Icon options in my other feature request. This would let us change another Custom Direct Select without having to make snapshots...
