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

    The "Time Template" button is currently completely unused and superfluous - if I could map a macro to it like the macro buttons above it on the face panel, that would be handy.

    It would be great in Augment3D to show which shutter is which. Perhaps this is a letter indication on the selected light, showing on a surface or at the focus level of the light? I think ideally it would be a setting like Sticks, and settable per user...

    I would really like to be able to: Copy and paste a pixel pattern then assign a different channel or series of channel numbers to it. Scale a fixture without it adding more fixtures. Group multiple pixels to then move, copy, and scale them as a...

    Right now, when I copy channels, groups, etc. to a new magic sheet, it simply changes the Target values to the next available number, but I can't think of a scenario where I want that. 9/10 times I want to copy those objects with the same target to a...

    Group 0.1 should not be the same as group 0.10. If I'm using the 0.# system to record groups based on areas, the system breaks down when I have more than 9 areas, since area 1 and area 10 need to store into the same group. Just like in software, version...

    It would be great for third-party applications to be able to obtain the main general parameters of Eos in OSC, including language and library version. For example, in the same format as the version: eos/get/language and eos/get/library . Thanks!

    Hi, I wanted to create a live tab view to show only channels with discrete times. If i hit timing display button or about + time, all live tabs are affected, and it's impossible to let just one tab with times displayed on channels. Maybe it could be better...

    There should definitely be a "Home" button for A3D objects, especially those associated with SEM's. Because it's super annoying having to manually zero every position field when trying to get a mesh to mate to an SEM. It should really automatically mate...

    Not really sure if this is a feature request or a bug report, but can the pop-up keyboard be made to display the underscore character? It's a bit confusing editing strings that contain both spaces and underscores. Thanks!
