Being able to set the White Balance of a picture is a very basic tool. I use a WhiBal card and an ExpoDisc to take a photo to enable me to set my White Balance, but I have to go to Adobe Elements to use the White Balance eyedropper there to find my color temperature and then go to Luminar to set my White Balance. It seems like a major missing feature. I was under the impression that it was to be incorporated in this update. I'm very disappointed, after waiting all this time, to see it still missing.

  White balance tools are going to be included into one of the next updates for Luminar on Windows (they're already available on Mac).

  @Chris Boshuizen the article you're referring to is about the previous version of Luminar, Neptune. It has a different interface. For an overview of filters in Luminar 2018l, check here (scroll down to Develop & Raw Develop to get straight to the subject of this thread): https://skylum.com/luminar/user-manual/2018/windows/using-filters

  I wholeheartedly agree.  The eyedropper tool for White Balance is very useful in Adobe, wish it was in Skylum.

  I would also like to see a one click white balance function - like the Lightroom eye dropper in the "Develop" module. It should be obvious - I don't want to have to burrow through various filter options to find it.

  @Remo - They don't seem to be there. I am using the latest windows trial version (1.2.0.1886), and the "Develop" and "Color Temperature" look nothing like the ones on this page:

  https://skylum.com/luminar/filters/color-temperature

  There is no drop down for presets, and there is no eye dropper. 

  Is it a missing feature of this version? Or of the trial? If it is included, which module do I add to find it?

  It is already there and was in the previous version as well. Look for the eyedropper on the same line as the white balance under "develop".
