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

  • Flexi View Chans in Partition 0

    • 0 Comments
    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.
  • Flexi View by Palette

    • 1 Comment
    Would love to be able to set a channel display to show channels that are active in certain palettes/presets. Example- I'm looking to track fixtures in specific focus palettes whilst active. I could continually query, but of course that's an extra step...

  • Link Back to Cue

    • 0 Comments
    Just like link-to, there needs to be a link back. For example I can use link to so we can skip over a block of cues that we're going to skip this performance, but if I need to jump backwards over that skipped section I need to manually go back to cue...
  • Changes in the ESD should be reflected in the PSD

    • 0 Comments
    Currently if you apply an effect to a channel selection in a new Cue, the fade time will populate in the PSD. i.e If I apply Intensity Effect 915 to some channels and record it as Cue 5, my default time of 3 will populate in the Int Up/Down column of...
  • 'Locking' encoder pages to stop encoders moving around [Apex]

    • 2 Comments
    Hi all, I'm running into an issue caused by the Apex encoders display being 3 pages in one. I know already a current feature request about unifying the pages ( https://community.etcconnect.com/control_consoles/eos-family-consoles/i/feature-requests...
  • Emergency marks that happen in a cue part with an existing Mark flag should show as "M+"

    • 0 Comments
    It's very easy to miss broken marks when their emergency marking happens in a cue that already has a mark flag on it. It would be great if emergency marks could always be attention grabbing in the cue list, instead of only when there isn't already a mark...
  • add ability to copy lamp controls from existing fixture in the fixture editor

    • 0 Comments
    When creating a new fixture, I would love to have the ability to copy and paste the lamp controls from an existing fixture. This would be extremely helpful in trying out new modes in existing lights, or new lights in the same product line.
  • Discrete timing: Fan percentages

    • 0 Comments
    Its great we can have percentages on time and delay but being able to fan say, [Group] [1] [Delay] [/] [100] [Thru] [0] [Enter]. At the moment obviously you can fan absolute delay and time but we cant on percentage. This'll make discrete timing revolutionary...
  • Cue Part Label Copy To/Move To

    • 2 Comments
    The following different syntaxes don't do anything or don't do what we intend them to do [Cue] [1] [Part] [1] [Copy To] [Cue] [2] [Part] [1] {Labels Only} [Enter] - does not copy the Part 1 label from Cue 1 to Cue 2 Part 1, instead copies the Cue 1...
