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

  • 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...
  • OSC support for getting a channels' parameter ( /eos/get/patch/// ?!)

    When pulling data via OSC there is welcome support for high-level features like Augment3d or FPE, Palettes or Pixmaps - but none for the basic parameters of a channel. This it would be amazing to get: /eos/get/patch/<chan>/<part>/<parameter> ( Ofc one...
  • Colored grouped cues inside PSD like Qlab does

    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...
  • focus conventional with XYZ values and keep target memory for next venues

    • 0 Comments
    Hi, i wondered if this was thinkable, this would make them quite easy to focus and allow to focus them once in a tour, and to get augmented reasonably easily uo to date. This could be part of the patch tab, as it already gets orientation parametres?
  • 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...

  • Edit the Selection Area of Magic Sheet Assets

    It would be very helpful to be able to adjust the size of the selection area of objects within a magic sheet so that they don't get accidentally selected or accidentally left out as easily.
  • Feature Request - Ability to lock a Fader wing to a fader page

  • Resize frames by holding tab and clicking and dragging frame border

    • 1 Comment
    Would be nice if we could resize frames without going into the workspace layout menu. Seems like a silly extra step that should be able to be accomplished by holding tab and clicking and dragging on frame borders or something. I know right now holding...

    • 0 Comments
    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...
