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 would love to be able to set the color of a magic sheet object either directly through OSC or through setting up conditions in the object properties itself. For example, I'm building a small cue light system. I'm sending: /qlite/out/department/1...

    This is a common feature in other visualizers--something visible on one face of the 3D model's base to allow easy coordination of the light's virtual orientation with reality. I'm having a lot of fun playing with augment3d but that part of it involved...

    Without an object such as SUB 101.1 or MACRO 101.1, one cannot create an organized show file. Since the functionality already exists for presets, palettes, groups and snapshots, it would be beneficial if there was the ability to maintain one concept through...

    Be able to use variables inside a macro, for instance specify x as a value then have x used in multiple places within the same macros. Also on a similar note, to be able to use an If, Then, Else style syntax to enable advanced programming in macros...

    I'd love the ability to put comments inline in a macro, so you can explain what is happening and why it has to happen that certain way, for example.

    Would it be possible for Home Home to ignore the Home Preset. i.e if you had a shutter cut in the home preset you could do shutter Home Home and it would home the shutter frame to its original home value with all shutter cuts out instead of having to...

    I have data recorded into palettes and presets. The live table shows the presets and palettes the channels are receiving data from. When I press and hold [data], or press shift&[data], the parameters showing the presets change to showing the palette data...

    Problem - Augmented is currently like one giant room. If there are multiple sets, stages or rooms in a venue there needs to be a way to separate each area both physically from light spill and from the computer processing off screen elements. Currently...

    Why nomad users need to use a third party software to control EOS with midi controler? Let us use midi to control faders, macros and desk keys with control changes and midi notes.

    It would be nice to have something similar to sACN view but just for console DMX output that could also be used offline to check levels. This would be especially useful when troubleshooting lamp controls, etc... when you don't have a fixture to test or...
