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

    In most cases, moving lights could move to its position, but automark forces it to the cue before the change happens. It would be great to have the option to make the move as early as possible.

    Augment3d has the ability to be very powerful for film production. If we had a small accelerometer/rfid/positioning type product we could attach to a camera build we could then use that as our augment3d viewer on a laptop. The purpose would be to view...

    When looking at the Augmnet3d tab in Patch, I would like a way to switch between seeing nested XYZ values and World XYZ values, without having to switch to the Augment3d Edit tab.

    Finally trying out FPE in the real world. It's a very large space so the margin of error is very high making it not a great test case and sending my lights all over the place. I know FPE is still very much a "in theory" process as it becomes refined....

    Basically what the title says; Being able to label a macro that then gets executed by a cue list and having the label show up in the PSD. Same for effects, I would love just seeing "Lightning Burst 2" show up in the FX column.
