Develop persona white balance picker


Recommended Posts

I'm rather new to AP, so there may be something I simply don't understand about your request, but doesn't the White Balance Tool in the Develop persona already do what you want?

Unfortunately it doesn’t

Thanks, @wgphoto, but I still don't understand. If I choose the White Balance Tool (not the White Balance panel), and then click on a pixel in the image using the tool, doesn't that adjust the white balance based on the pixel I clicked on? It certainly seems to, and that's what the Help says should happen:

Quote

Automatically sets the White Balance of the image depending on the color of the pixel clicked under the tool's cursor ...

If it's not doing that, or that's somehow different from what you've asked for, I'd like to understand more.

If you click on the White Balance Adj Layer you have the button "Picker". Click on it and then click anywhere you want on your picture, or drag it. You'll see the color change.

I don't have my iPad in front of me, but I'm hoping you mean there's an actual white balance tool in the develop persona. I'll give it a look when I get home. If so, thanks for pointing that out.

The White Balance I metionned above is the one in "Photo" Persona.

In Develop Persona it's the last tool at the bottom of the Tool box. Shortcut is "W".

Having a "picker" on the right Panel itself would make sense also.

EDIT: I'm talking about the WIndows version, I don't have an iPad... Just noticed that I am in that section.... sorry.
