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

  • Saving effects modified by global fx into cues

    • 0 Comments
    Somehow in the ESD having an option to grab effects controlled by an effect master and pull them into cue data.
  • Reference based Groups for Effects

    • 7 Comments
    You can use Groups to define Channels for Effects but this applies them absolutely as channel numbers so if you update a group, the effect will not update to use the new grouping... It'll continue to use Chan 1>10 if you change Group 1 to 1>5...
  • Flexi state with times and times displayed on channels

    • 2 Comments
    Hi, I wanted to create a live tab view to show only channels with discrete times. If i hit timing display button or about + time, all live tabs are affected, and it's impossible to let just one tab with times displayed on channels. Maybe it could be better...
  • Parameter Display

    Now that the parameter display could be rearranged, is there a purpose for the tile in the bottom left. Next to "Intensity". Could this be populated with "AllNPs"? That way the AllNPs can be a tile even when the CIA is collapsed. Thanks.
  • Flexi Moves

    Similar to Flexi Active but removes tracked channels. I use a macro right now to achieve this in “view channels” but a dedicated view would be great.

  • Magic Sheets: Reference Data Displays Associated Icon

    • 0 Comments
    With magic sheets having more finite control of target types available, it would be cool to also be able to link an icon to those targets: two use cases come to mind. More and more, we're giving follow spot operators a heads-up display of some kind...
  • User Setting - Disable SC Learn by Default

    • 0 Comments
    Probably for User Settings, but possible for System Settings: The ability to set the default behavior for Macro SC Learn to be either disabled or enabled by default. Unless I'm overlooking something, it always default to SC Learn Enabled. And while...
