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

  • Wildcards for Selection in Labels

    • 2 Comments
    Hello. Here at our venue (and i assume manny others do aswell) we use Presets for Focus+Beam palettes when working with framing Movinglights. We store Presets for Groups of fixtures and label them with where the lights are pointing/ what the shutters...
  • 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...
  • Partition User Settings

    Make it so that "Recall User Settings" doesn't overwrite the User label.
  • Augment3d Beam labels

    • 0 Comments
    For running shows I find it useful to be able to tell what light is doing what as my fixtures have mechanical issues keeping edge as programmed. I want the label of the stick beam to be at the surface that the beam falls on, not in the middle of the stick...
  • Could the A3d import window let us map a user field to Edge so we can set that in VW?

    • 0 Comments
    Because, at the moment, merging in A3d is an all or nothing affair in patch, I think many of us will be using the import method as opposed to importing in an existing Augemented rig. That means trying to get the VW export as detailed as possible, to leave...
  • Magic Sheet Relative Absolute Data Toggle

    • 0 Comments
    It would be fantastic if when editing a magic sheet, you could click on a channel and at the bottom of the settings (next to interactive) there was a button to be able to toggle data to be all relative or all absolute. Useful to see where the zactrack...
  • Stick Beams and Fixture Labels not as useful as hoped

    • Under Review on
    • 14 Comments
    Hi, Augmented is not as useful as I hoped at answering the question: "what is the bright spot downstage left" particularly on large shows. 1) There should be an option for channel number labels to be displayed at the floor, rather than the middle...
  • SpaceMouse Support for Augment3D Navigation

    • 0 Comments
    I use a lot of different 3D programs. Augment3D is the one I find most frustrating in terms of navigating my view around a 3D scene. By far, the easiest way to do this kind of navigation is to use 3DConnexion's SpaceMouse. Might it be possible in the...
  • Magic sheet arc tools

    It would be great to be able to draw arc lines, not the semi circles. Also a distribute in an arc tool. Thinking about things like chase lights on a round portal or arch.
  • Notify OSC clients on channel level changes

    • 0 Comments
    It would be really useful to have the ability to subscribe to feedback for channel level changes so channel views and faders can be updated as their values change.
