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

    • 1 Comment
    It would be very useful to customize the display text on all magic sheet objects, independent of the target name or label. I primarily use labels to distinguish items within their target list, which can make the labels lengthy and unsuited for display...

    So this is an interesting problem that isn't really a bug, but just something that I think will need to be dealt with eventually. With 2.9.1 and 3.0 on the same machine (Nomad on PC), if 2.9.1 is accidentally (or sometimes purposefully) opened in client...

  • A3D Beam Edge Slider

    • 0 Comments
