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

    It would be really nice if you could change the keyboard-shortcuts, so that every user can have its own individual keyboard shortcut arrangement. It then would also be very cool, if you had access to the bumb, go and load buttons of a real console....

    It would be great if we could use Aim with movers to orient them in the space. I have a show already programmed and am building an Augment3d space around it. I have a test focus palette and would love to be able to put all my movers in that focus palette...
  • Use camera as Color reference

    • 1 Comment
    Spending a lot of time to get my colorpalettes accurate thru different fixtures, I was thinking there should be a way to automate that process. The color estimation of eos (for “unknown” fixtures) is not bad but far away from perfect. That is because...

    It would be awesome if you could print focus wand targets to a pdf from eos.
  • Last Palette Used

    • 0 Comments
    Idea:Add a small label for last palette used to table and magic sheets. Current issue: When using palettes any adjustment turns references to a + or their actual data from reference labels. Current scenario: Fos/4 x8 in direct mode, adjust light to...
  • Label size "Zoom option"

    • Planned for Future on
    • 1 Comment
    Hi, When zooming out in A3d could the "Label size" stay the same and not increase. At the moment the "Fixture Labels" are unreadable and unusable in a large scale rig as they overlap when you zoom out. Also the "White box" around the Label feels unnecessary...
  • Should the slider bars in A3d preferences have numerical references?

    • 0 Comments
    Don't get me wrong...I love the simplicity of the Ambient light shortcuts. And for basic users, this may be all they ever deal with. But since you can open up preference and change the ambient light to levels that are not one of the 4 buttons (as well...
