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

    From what I can tell, there is no current way to use macros to set the live/blind channel display format to a known state, without using snapshots or other trickery. There is a "/eos/key/spreadsheet" command listed in the manual, but it seems to error...

    It would be great to be able to enter (+)#% or /# values in the scale box for linear effects. This would assist in creating linear effects that are relative to the intensity. That way we could change a channels intensity on the fly without having to adjust...

    Cells in a patched fixture that have a default nonzero intensity value (usually 100%) should be considered inactive when they are home (no value from Manual/cuelist/sub/effect) If you have a lot of cell fixtures in your showfile with default values...

    Allow the CIE X and Y values to be user-defined for LED diodes in the fixture editor to make the Color Picker tools more accurate.

    Hey there, "never ask, never get"... in Augment3d there seems to be no way to show a fixture rotating unlimited. I would like to have such functionality. For more information about my specific issue, have a look at this post: https://community.etcconnect...

    When merging Fader Config, there should be an option in Advanced settings to merge individual faders or fader pages. Example, merge only faders 30/1 thru 38/10

    When a master is locked OSC should show as not enabled or with an asterisk in tab 2. Or! even better, enable and disable OSC when master is locked as a setting!

  • Submaster property that will ignore [StopEffect]

    As a (frightfully common) example, haze is run from a submaster with an effect. I'll put the sub up and forget about it and off we'll go cueing. Hours later we'll get to the cue with the simple request "and here all the effects will stop." Easy enough;...

    Sending this in based on some tradeshow feedback. While this would only work for Apex due to the oLED, it could also showup correctly in the Direct Selects on a screen for non-apex console. This could either ripple across all of the Eos software, or just...

    I like the idea of the icons, but without musical instruments, the concept is kind of pointless. You see here, my Focus Palettes have downloaded musical icons from this website . (mostly) but black on forest green does not translate. I can't change the...
