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

  • Grabbing a focus handle should post the channel to the command line and make it selected

    • 3 Comments
    There may be good reasons to not do this that I'm not thinking of but... If you're in Control mode and if you've got a moving light on and you're showing focus handles, right now you have to select the light on the command line first, and then grab...
  • Magic Sheet tombstone

    • Planned for Future on
    • 1 Comment
    The Magic Sheet tombstone should be modified so that it matches the Live Summary tombstone. In particular: Color swatch should not go behind the intensity value (so intensity colors still work - green, blue, white, magenta, etc) Same thing for...
  • 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...
  • Allow mapping macros to unused "Time Template" face panel button

    • 0 Comments
    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 nice for custom bookmarks to show some kind of visual indicator they have been customized

    • 0 Comments
    Right now, I believe there is no visual difference between the default bookmark icons and ones that you have set to be custom. I would like to see just some indication that for instance, if bookmarks 1 and 2 have been customized...the numbers or the outline...
  • Encoder Mapping Swap (Top) and (Bottom)

    • 0 Comments
    I'm really excited about Encoder Mappings; I'm currently updating my base showfile with all the new features. Currently the encoders map (Left) to (Right), but expanding to show the dedicated encoders on the Eos shows that the (Left) most encoder will...
  • Cue Time x Replace With y

  • Absolute Groups

    • 0 Comments
    Whenever a channel is added to or moved in patch, it can affect Group selections. It would be a helpful convenience thing to be able to designate a group as a set range, no matter what happens in Patch. I usually use Groups as Cue List filters, so I...
