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

  • Allow Show Control Events on Analog open or close

    • 0 Comments
    Eos can detect open and close as shown by sub bump, it holds the bump down on contact close, and releases on contact open. I would like to be able to trigger Macro x on contact close, and Macro y on contact open.
  • A3d: Zoom to Selection + Beam

    • 3 Comments
    Zoom to selection is only kinda somewhat useful: Most of the time I care more about what's coming out of the light than the fixture itself. A zoom to selection + beam (showing you both the fixture and the beam) would be much more useful. Mac, b...
  • You should be able to change the visibility of A3d query folders

    • 0 Comments
    It's very useful, for instance, to gather, all the conventionals into a Query folder, or all the moving lights, or all of FOH, etc. I would love to be able to click that folder and turn all the objects inside of it visible or not visible by using the...

  • Change BPM manually and have "Learn_Time_Sample_BPM" apply for ALL active and nonactive effects I select

    • 0 Comments
    I'd like to be able to change the BPM and/or Rate of any effect, whether or not it is currently active. This would be extremely helpful for busking so I would be able to know the next Effect I use will match the current tempo. ( Photo from V3.2.5 B13...
  • Live Moves Flags - (ignore colour live moves)

    • 0 Comments
    I feel as if Live Colour Moves are rather ubiquitous at this point in time while live Focus & Beam moves are sometimes an obvious red flag in your show file. There should be a way to "ignore" live colour moves and/or highlight Focus & Beam moves. I...
  • Augmented Tab Options - Create Pixel Map from...

    • 1 Comment
    Probably on the list already but would be nice if the "create pixelmap from Magic Sheet" and "create magic sheet from pixelmap" were located on Tab 3/9 respectively... Super powerful tool though! They're going to save me hours of pixelmap layouts...

    Make it easier to change colors in the magic sheet. Two suggestions: Change the top row of color selection to be "white," "blacK" and the last six colors I chose manually. Use the ML color picker to choose a color (including the swatch books, so...
