P: White Balance - As Shot added as a History step automatically when using Embedded Previews

Strange behaviour in the latest release of LR Classic 13.3 (Win). I've imported a shoot and used the embedded previews as I always do.

 

As I move through the filmstrip in develop every time I click on an image that still has the embedded preview icon showing LR is adding a new White Balance - As Shot to the history for the image. If I undo this step so the history is empty switch to another image and then back again LR doesn't add the WB setting again.

 

It seems it only happens to images using the embedded preview the first time they are opened in Develop.

It's very annoying as I can no longer use the unedited filter to see if there's any images in my final selection that haven't been edited.

Bonjour,
Depuis peu, quand j'importe mes photos sur lightroom, il modifie d'office les températures de couleur pour chaque photo. On le voit tout d'abord car le curseur de température est d'office bougé (n'est plus au milieu) et on le voit aussi tout simplement en comparant la photo avec le mode "avant / après" : les deux photos ont une température différente avant même d'avoir fait la moindre modification ?!?
Quelqu'un sait comment empecher cela?
Merci d'avance!

1. Can you post in a reply a screenshot of your LrC Develop module, at that point in the editing. A full screen. Please make sure the History Panel is shown, Please make sure the Histogram is shown. And naturally, the Basic Panel is shown.

 

This should be of an image that has just been imported, with no user mods accomplished.

 

2. Can you post a screenshot of your LrC  /Preferences/Presets/

 

P.S. I see that you are new to the community. Do not be surprised if the Moderator(s) move your post from Bugs, to Discussions.

Hello everyone, I am seeing a change in my lightroom after updating to version 13.4. I was having the issue where I would view a photo in developer in 13.3 and it would apply changes automatically and add a history item but it was just white balance. Since my update to version 13.4 it is doing it more consistently but it says "Multple Settings". I can't tell what it is modifying, and I don't want it to be doing this. I don't know if this helps but I made a screen recording of this happening https://youtu.be/Nh1FZLK4agU

 

This video shows selecting an image I haven't viewed in developer before, going into developer, and a history change is generated without any additional action. I undo the change, select another picture, the history is modified again without interaction, I select another picture and the same thing happens, I undo the change, and go back to the other image and undo that change. I normally navigate with the keyboard but for this recording, I only used the mouse so no keyboard shortcuts are being pressed or accidentally pressed.

 

I don't know if this helps or not but I thought I would share what is happening visually.

@Ricky336 Sadly bugs can take a fair old while to get fixed, the first one I reported took 3 years and I reported another just over a year ago. I'm amazed and saddened in equal measures that bugs like this slip past the testers 😢🤦‍♂🤷‍♂

Anyone know if there are any stats on average time to fix, it might help manage our expectations and frustration.

This bug is still marked as "Unresolved" (see the bottom of the first post), and the release notes for LR 13.4 don't mention it being fixed. Adobe is very good about updating bug reports here with changes in status.

Just a heads up, but this automatic application of white balance 'As Shot" still appears in the History steps - 13.4. Is this intentional? Or is this still a bug?

Can a fix be offered for this?

Go to Library module > Quick develop > Check if Save preset and White blance is set to custom.

Change it back to default settings. Then, try importing images to Lightroom classic.

Is that an undocumented change?

If so, not a desired change.

Hey, I've just discovered that a RESET on the images makes them susceptible to the bug, even if they aren't using embedded previews.

Import some images with standard previews.
In Develop check the bug isn't happening by selecting images in turn.
Now select all the images and apply Settings > Reset All Settings
Re-check the bug by again selecting images in turn and the dreaded white balance: as shot returns.
