NZezula Posted November 9, 2022 Author Share Posted November 9, 2022 To sum it up: On non-raw files, either in the photo or develop persona white balance picker does not do anything with tint, only with temperature, which results in not changing the color under the picker to be neutral gray.

rikkarlo Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Following. I'm eager to see a fix for this one as well. It's too much time we are waiting for such a basic feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tadd Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hello. I stay here. Certainly the white balance works well but the tint does nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tadd Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Hello. I just checked one thing. When we import the RAW file before revealing it for the first time (Revealing Person) both the white balance and the hue work. Once developed in the Person Photo, only the white balance works and if we return with the same photo to the Developed Person, only the white balance works and not the hue. That is to say that the first time everything related to color temperature works, but once developed, no longer. I don't know if I explained myself well, I don't speak English and I translate with Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff MEB Posted January 6, 2023 Staff Share Posted January 6, 2023 Hi @Tadd, That's what's logged with development. The RAW file is converted to a pixel layer the first time you process it in Develop Persona. When you have that pixel layer selected and go back to Develop Persona to edit the white balance a second time it only changes the Temperature. The same happens if you open a JPG and switch immediately to the Develop Persona to edit the White Balance - the jpg file is equally a pixel layer and so it will not work in these conditions as well. For now what you can do is set the Output (in context toolbar) in Develop Persona to a RAW Layer (Embedded or Linked as you prefer) rather than Pixel layer if possible. This way the RAW file remains editable as such, and the White Balance will work correctly changing both the Temperature and Tint.

NZezula Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 Hi @MEB, I would just add that it's not only in develop persona but in the photo persona too (if you add a new white balance layer and use the picker, it will do nothing with the tint)... I guess its the same function used in two different places so it does not matter that much, but for my use case, and I think for a lot of people too, the bug in photo persona is the bigger problem.... when you need to go through hundreds of photos per day and know that it will be presented either only on the web or in a small format you usually do not bother with RAW and do some bulk conversion as the first step or just shooting to JPG in the first place. And if the photographer forgets to calibrate the camera properly, or is just shooting for a long time and a light condition changes, you need to be able to fix it with one click in the software rikkarlo and MEB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted January 6, 2023 Staff Share Posted January 6, 2023 Hi @NZezula, Yes, in Photo Persona too. Forgot to mention it (both are covered in the same report). Thanks. NZezula 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikkarlo Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Thanks for your effort and checking it with developers. I totally agree with zezula, most of the times I do not even go into the develop persona because I only work with digital renderings which do not even have the raw file in the first place. So the tool I would like to be working to balance the white is the one into the photo persona. To sum up, I didn't get if it will be fixed or not, what's the outcome of your meeting?

Staff MEB Posted January 6, 2023 Staff Share Posted January 6, 2023 Hi @rikkarlo, I understand the Photo Persona is equally important (if not more). On my previous reply I was mostly acknowledging Tadd's issue which was specifically referring to Develop Persona. Rest assured both are included in the report. I do not know if/when the issue will be fixed as this depends entirely on dev team/management priorities, sorry.

rikkarlo Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 ok that's totally understandable, keep us updated possibly thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NZezula Posted January 28, 2023 Author Share Posted January 28, 2023 Hi, To keep this issue alive, I'm updating you that the bug is still present in 2.04. (Please do not think that I'm some kind of hater, I enjoy my time with affinity and the amount of product you offer, for such a low amount of money is extraordinary.) rikkarlo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted January 30, 2023 Staff Share Posted January 30, 2023 Hi @NZezula, This issue wasn't touched for 2.0.4 which was mainly to fix urgent/critical issues, thus it's still open. I've bumped/updated it yet again - hopefully the next update/patch will take care of it. No worries with raising bugs/issues/problems with us - we appreciate your feedback. Thanks for keeping at it.

NZezula Posted February 27, 2023 Author Share Posted February 27, 2023 2.1.0.1709 ... still nothing 😞 rikkarlo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikkarlo Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 2.1.1 still nothing. C'mon guys... this is a critical one, you should put it up on the list as soon as possible in my opinion! Otherwise, how in the world photografers can calibrate their photos properly, white blanace is the first step in most of photo editing workflows!
