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

    This would essentially be a Go/Back-Shortcut for the pending cue. Allowing us to quickly skip to a cue without having to type it in first. Sometimes you have to skip one or more cues quickly, but you still want the marks to happen for example.

    It would helpful also to get some configuration data from the Faders, e.g. labels of the "Fire" and "Stop" button and also the "Fader Type" like Master, Effect Size, Effect Rate ... Maybe something like: /eos/out/fader/<index>/<fader index>/config which...

    In most 3D softwares, there's keyboard shortcuts for switching from top, side, right, etc. views. It's clumsy trying to navigate around when I can't quickly access the top view. Check out the Blender keyboard shortcuts. Maybe they need to be CTRL+[#]...

    I see there are questions popping up here and there, including mine about selective A3D merge as we have in patch. This would be extremely useful for merging objects from one model to another. Thank You

    When you populate beam palettes with gobos from moving heads, can the icons that already exist in the head file be applied to the palette? Automatically or via button somewhere.

    Right now this is only possible with a workaround, having the FX stopped and with its exit being a stop and hold and stopping the effect. But this has issues in and of itself, and we should be able to just record the "pink" or light yellow value (from...

    I've been working on a show for the last few weeks where i was using my iPad to be able to make edits from all over the auditorium. However I realized when I went to update a cue, there was no "Trace" button (and I didn't see one in the Softkeys either...
