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

  • Blind Spreadsheet: highlight cues

    • 0 Comments
    When I am in Blind Spreadsheet view, I can type „Channel 1 thru next next“ which will outline the subsequent channels in gold while I type. The same behaviour would be helpful if I type „Cue 1 thru next next, as it clearly selects the subsequent cues...
  • Submaster Usage Query in About

    • 0 Comments
    Can we add the ability to use the About menu to view the usage of a submaster/view which cues execute the submaster, just as you can with channels, presets or effects?
  • CSV Advanced Patch Export

    • 0 Comments
    Hi It would be uber useful to be able to do a patch export and type a group in. So I could just export Patch Data for Group 1 for example. Rather than having to remember lots of random channel numbers! I'm aware there is still a bug with advanced...
  • Individual cue list realise times

    • 1 Comment
    being able to give deprecate cue list different release times will really help with busy shows where other cue lists (containing bumps etc) are fired from one main list. I know this can be achieved with macros but it would be nice to have this as an option...
  • Effect on Parent or Cells attribute

    • 0 Comments
    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...
  • VMS Update

    • 0 Comments
    The advancement of integrated graphics on the new Intel and AMD chips seems like a great opportunity to add some features to the VMS. I would love to see 3D pixel maps built within Eos in addition to complex shapes much like what Enttec ELM can do.
  • Please add 'Zoom Out and Zoom In' to the ML controls

    • 0 Comments
    The ML controls always take up way too much space when you split screen the monitors. You have zoom capabilities in practically every other window, it would be great to make the ML controls smaller. I typically share the screen with a magic sheet having...
  • Storing rate and size values modified by faders

    • 1 Comment
    Hi, I would like to able to store in the cues the size or rate of an effect while modifying them by a fader
  • CIA expand/collapse button

    • 1 Comment
    Are there any extra buttons on Ion/Gio/Gio@5/Eos consoles (Time Template, I'm looking at you) that could be repurposed into a CIA expand/collapse button? I know you can use Displays, but that requires 2 presses, and sometimes you have to double-tap a...
  • Musical Instrument icon pack

    • 0 Comments
    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...
