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

  • Option to Stop Intens Effects During Highlight

    • 3 Comments
    When I highlight a fixture, it's very annoying if it and/or other fixtures keep flashing. You can use the highlight and lowlight presets to squash strobe, but not effects. And because highlight rem dim only affects intens, you can't even stop strobes...
  • Emitter/Color Flag Parameter Group

    • 0 Comments
    It would be great to be able to grab all emitters and take them to a level, most commonly, 0 or 100. For Subtractive CMY, this is an easy enough macro to make since it's 3 parameters but for additive mixing there are so many emitter types that you can...
  • Curves for everything

  • Execute Sub / clear single executes

    • 1 Comment
    I'm sure it was asked before, but still: 1. Let's execute Subs 2. Would be nice to not all macros at once, but rather the chosen one (e.g. execute macro 3 would clear only macro 3).

  • Display underscore character in pop-up keyboard

    • 0 Comments
    Not really sure if this is a feature request or a bug report, but can the pop-up keyboard be made to display the underscore character? It's a bit confusing editing strings that contain both spaces and underscores. Thanks!
  • Resize frames by holding tab and clicking and dragging frame border

    • 1 Comment
    Would be nice if we could resize frames without going into the workspace layout menu. Seems like a silly extra step that should be able to be accomplished by holding tab and clicking and dragging on frame borders or something. I know right now holding...
