Conrad Hoffman Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 In a previous thread the issue with the picker not adjusting the tint was said to be fixed in the upcoming 2.0.4. Alas, this does not seem to be the case. Unless I'm doing something wrong. Disappointing, as I use this a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 There were several issues with white Balance, and they fixed the one that was causing a crash, but have not fixed a couple of others yet. There was some confusion as, I think, all were mentioned in the same bug report internally.

Conrad Hoffman Posted January 29, 2023 Author Share Posted January 29, 2023 Well, I'll admit that crashes have to take priority. Updates tend to be infrequent, so I was hoping for a bit more this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they're suppose to release patches everyday? I think Conrad was saying that since the next update is likely to be awhile from now, they were hoping that 2.0.4 would fix this one. But from what Patrick Connor has mentioned a couple of times, it sounds like a new beta should arrive fairly soon with a bunch of fixes in it. We won't know what they are until we see that beta, of course, but there's hope for this one being included Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad Hoffman Posted January 29, 2023 Author Share Posted January 29, 2023 Yes, that was my point. FWIW, I do have several software packages where minor updates are more frequent. Doing white balance correctly is such a basic thing that I'd expect it to have high priority. After all, Affinity Photo does some much more complicated stuff far better than most.

Conrad Hoffman Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 Joined the beta program and see that the white balance issue still exists. I thought it worked correctly in the develop persona, but that now seems amiss as well. To recap, for any reasonable off-white tone, using the picker, or using the develop white balance tool, the result after white balance is that the RGB values should be exactly equal.

Ron P. Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 @Conrad Hoffman, update the Beta to 1714. It seems that have the issues with White Balance fixed.

Conrad Hoffman Posted March 2, 2023 Author Share Posted March 2, 2023 I've tried 1714 and see no difference. If I load a Nikon RAW file, the white balance tool there works as expected. If I load a jpg, the operation is no different than the current release. Interestingly, if I go to the develop persona with the jpg file, the white balance tool there, that worked with an actual RAW file before, doesn't work with the jpg. I can't imagine that this is something specific to my machine or setup.
