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

  • Is there any way to make other objects invisible?

    • 2 Comments
    I was thinking it would be great to be able to make other objects "one-way-mirror" style, like the walls. I have curtain legs and it would be good to be able to see through them on a side view. Is this possible, or possible on a later version? Edit...
  • Moving Light Tracking With Augment3d

    • 2 Comments
    It would be amazing to have the functionality to be able to do moving light tracking with Augment3d. This is possible to do right now but I have an idea about how you could make it better. It would be amazing to be able to have a tool that could automatically...
  • Viewing Angle/FOV Zoom

    • 1 Comment
    I'm trying to visualize a rig and I wanted to know if there is a way to zoom out the FOV to a larger angle the preset one, but i couldn't find a way to do so. Am i not seeing something or is that just not a feature?
  • "F" function toggle..continuous tracking (Please see videoclip)

    I would like "everything" to move when I position the fixture without having to press "F" again and reposition myself with the mouse, a POV type situation for when I position the Fixture. If I put myself in front of the fixture and move the fixture...
  • Merging cue lists from a show with automark to one without should insert marks

    • Planned for Future on
    • 2 Comments
    (b322 in case that matters) I merged in an old showfile (cues, presets, focus palettes, effects) to prep for a remount and the old showfile was created and saved with AutoMark enabled. I'm merging the show to my NEW base showfile that has AutoMark...
  • The "padlocks" and the "eyes" are hard to see on light colored objects in the hierarchy

    • Planned for Future on
    • 1 Comment
    In the hierarchy, if you have objects with a light-colored square (especially white) next to them, it can be very hard to see if that object is locked or has an invisible eye icon. Maybe those icons should be bigger so they are easier to see, or their...
  • Lights turned on in live, should not also be on when you switch to edit mode

    • 2 Comments
    Maybe I'm misunderstanding the logic here, but it seems like you can turn lights on in Edit mode but only to focus them, like a kind of highlight. Edit mode is all about editing the geometry of the space, and a light on in Edit mode isn't really on in...
  • Enhancements for Grid settings

    • Under Review on
    • 2 Comments
    Couple of things regarding to Grid settings. Based on b307 - The width of the Width & Height fields in Preferences are really wide, which results in the Height being hidden or needs horizontal scrolling to show, when the pane is in default(?) width...
  • Objects don't need a dimension both on the axis and at the object

    • Under Review on
    • 0 Comments
    This is just my opinion, but I think having 2 duplicate X dimensions and 2 duplicate Y dimensions is unnecessary. I realize you sometimes may be too far away from the axes to see them, which is why there is the secondary dimensions not on the axis. For...
