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

  • Effect on Parent or Cells attribute

    While there are ways to get this result it would be nice if Effects could have an attribute toggle to only apply the effect onto the Channel selection Fixture Parent only, or onto the Channel selection Fixture Cells only. Default behavior would be current...
  • Fade Area at the edge of Zones in Augment3d

    • 2 Comments
    A 'fade out area' for Augment3d-Zones would be great. You could set it to a specific distance, so a beam that touches the zone fades from it's current intensity to zero as it moves further into the zone.
  • SPECTRO !

    About spectrometers – I’m pretty into the InLicht ULTRA . Super solid tool, straight-up connected to its app, no endless menu diving. The CEO is great, the product is simple and works. Basically just the sensor + app, nothing overcomplicated. Anyone...

    The color flags for macros (red, green, dark) show a flag on the DS button, but white shows nothing. White should also be a flag.

    Working in a multi user environment, being the house light designer, I wish it could be possible to group x number of cues inside a colored frame so that everyone can understand blocs of cues working together. I find that scenes attributes are not visual...
