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

    Hi there, Is it possible when in A3D Edit mode to query fixtures by type? If not, could it be so? Thanks!
  • Alert Timing OSC Support

    • 0 Comments
    Hello, It would be a huge help for Nomad users and Companion users to have Alert Timing sent over OSC. For productions that want the structure of a Time-code show but need the flexibility of manual cue control, Alert Timing is amazing. Adding the ability...

    [Group] (31) [Focus Palette] (3) {Intensity} (0) [Sneak] (6) [Enter] will not work. [Group] (31) [Focus Palette] (4) {Zoom} (100) [Sneak] (1) [Enter] will not work. Only the raw data will execute. All data needs to be contained in a palette for the...
  • Relative Scale in Linear Effects

    • 0 Comments
    It would be nice to have the ability to make the scale of linear effects be +/- a percentage of the total intensity value of a fixture as well as being able to have it be +/- a fixed value as it is now, so we don't have to change the entire effect any...

  • Shift +% and Shift -%

    It would be awesome for us nomad users and people who don’t like the intensity wheel to have the ability to change the +% and -% with shift. I would like to be able to select a shift +% and shift -% amount in the CIA so I can quickly change from +/- 10...
  • Need Home Button for A3D loc/rot

    • 0 Comments
    There should definitely be a "Home" button for A3D objects, especially those associated with SEM's. Because it's super annoying having to manually zero every position field when trying to get a mesh to mate to an SEM. It should really automatically mate...
  • Please add 'Zoom Out and Zoom In' to the ML controls

    • 0 Comments
    The ML controls always take up way too much space when you split screen the monitors. You have zoom capabilities in practically every other window, it would be great to make the ML controls smaller. I typically share the screen with a magic sheet having...
