Lightroom Classic: Problem when using copy and paste or sync in develop module with WB changed
My operating system is MacOS Catalina 10.15.7. With the new LRClassic update 10.0. When I change the WB from As Shot to Daylight in the Develop module with the Profile at Camera Standard (Nikon D500 and D850 user) whether I have made other changes to other sections of the basic panel or not and then copy and past to another photo or sync to other photos (same sequence and same camera WB settings) the WB label changes to Daylight in the photos copied to or synched but the sliders (and the setting) do not change. I then have to go to each individual photo copied to or synched to and change wb back to as shot and then to Daylight and then it works although then the preveviews in the thumbnails in the film strip below are erractically slow to resolve. This does not happen if I have just changed the Temp or Tint slider or both but only if I have clicked on the Daylight option. I have tried disabling all plug ins and no change, I have turned of the computer completely and turned it back on etc.. .

Updates to the Adobe Photography Products were released yesterday and include a fix for this issue. Please install the December update, restart your system and verify you are no longer experiencing the issue. Thank you for your assistance in reporting, providing additional information and, most of all, for your patience.

I can confirm the same behavior on my Windows 10 system using LrC 10.0.

I can confirm that this is happening on Catalina 10.15.7 on a MacBook Pro and Lightroom Classic 10.0 using Sony .awr files that have been converted to .dng files upon import.

A workaround: In Library loupe or grid view, select the photos, and in the Quick Develop panel, change White Balance to Daylight.
I haven't extensively tested it, but it worked on the few test cases I tried.

I see this behavior as well and will write a bug for it. It seems to happen whenever a WB setting is changed from the drop down menu in the white balance edit panel. It behaves this way for all drop downs except Custom. Perhaps because you have to actually move a slider to make a custom setting.

Win 10 Pro - LrC V10
I see the same behavior. In develop, changing the white balance on the main image, then selecting another image or images the Sync function does not work on the adjacent image or non-contiguous ones. If I adjust esposure and WB, then sync, both values get synched.
In the Library module, Grid view, change the white balance in quick develop and use the Sync Settings button results in no sync of the WB. But, the WB field in quick develop does show that the value "tungsten" in this case has changed. When I try to sync the change in two values, WB and exposure, the exposure syncs, but the WB does not.
I tried just changing the WB in Grid View on an image and nothing else. Then the sync with the adjacent image worked ok if I also had Basic Tone checked, even though I had not made any changes to those items.

Thanks a lot Ken, for reporting this, and others for confirming.
We are able to reproduce and are investigating the issue.
Thanks,
Arjun

If you select one of the standard present white balance settings (example: Daylight) and copy settings, when pasting to another photo the white balance is not applied. If you copy a custom white balance then this is applied.
Lightroom Classic 10.0
In previous versions this worked as expected

I can confirm the same behavior with LrC V10 on an iMac running on MacOS Catalina 10.5.7. Copy and paste / sync of white balance doesn't work properly. Seems to be that white balance can' be synced.

Well I am glad I came here. I thought I was going crazy for the last month. This is happening to me as well. VERY frustrating and is slowing my work flow. I'm on Mac OS version 10.15.7 (19H15) and LR 10.0

In addition to the fuzziness of the Library module when zoomed in, I have found another 'quirk' of Lightroom Classic v10. It goes like this: create virtual copy of RAW file, make adjustments on the virtual copy that are different from the original's settings, including white balance, then copy all settings, go back to original RAW file and paste settings.
When I tried this (since I often try and compare different settings on the same photo) according to the tools tab, the white balance had copied across, but visually it was obvious that it had not, regardless of whether I view it in Library or Develop. I tried this in both directions - original to virtual copy and vice versa. Exactly the same result, and it didn't make any difference whether I reset the photo that I was pasting to or just pasted over the settings that it already had. Again, the results were the same in both directions (virtual to original or original to virtual). I have never had this problem before LRC V10.
The histogram sometimes looked different between copied and pasted versions as well, despite the fact they were the same RAW photo now supposedly with the same develop settings, so there may have been other things that claimed to have copied across when they had not. As with the blurriness in the Library module that I have mentioned in a separate post, reverting back to v9.4 has cured this lunacy. So, I now have a few photos to reprocess, but better that than carry on with the mess that v10 seems to be.
I can see online that people are having various other problems with v10. This is just an unacceptable mess that Adobe really need to sort out quickly. I am currently regretting not giving my trial version of Capture One a more thorough test run before deleting it.

While waiting for this bug to be fixed, here all the ways I successfully set multiple selected photos to WB: Daylight (tested with multiple D850 raws set to Camera Standard, LR 10.0, Mac OS 10.15.7):
Develop, Auto Sync:
1. Go to Develop.
2. Turn on Auto Sync by clicking the toggle to the left of the Sync bottom in the lower-right corner.
3. Change WB to Daylight.
4. Turn off Auto Sync.
Develop, right-click copy/paste: (retested 11/28)
1. Go to Develop.
2. Change WB to Daylight.
3. Right-click the filmstrip thumbnail and do Develop Settings > Copy Settings; check White Balance.
4. Right-click the thumbnail and do Develop Settings > Paste Settings.
Library Grid view, Quick Develop:
1. Go to Library grid view (type "g"; not Loupe view)
2. In the Quick Develop panel, change White Balance to Daylight.
Library Loupe view, Quick Develop
1. Go to Library Loupe view (type "e")
2. Turn on Auto Sync by clicking the toggle to the left of the Sync button in the lower-right corner.
3. In the Quick Develop panel, change White Balance to Daylight.
4. Turn off Auto Sync.
Library Loupe and Grid view, with the first photo's WB already set to Daylight, right-click copy/paste: (retested 11/28)
1. Go to Library Loupe or Grid view.
2. Right-click the first photo's filmstrip thumbnail and do Develop Settings > Copy Settings; check White Balance.
3. Right-click the thumbnail and do Develop Settings > Paste Settings.

When I use "Previous" function and/or "Copy/Paste Settings" to apply settings across a group of selected images for uniformity, all the settings are not pasted or moved over to the group. Specifically, what I notice most obviously is the white balance. In the panel, the title of the white balance might say "Shady" as it should be, but the temperature value still reads "5500" and it is unchanged in the image. I have to preform another two clicks, one to change the temp, then one to reselect the "Shady" option to actually make the proper change.
How many more of my setting aren't being transferred over?? This is costing me time on hundreds of images per session I edit.

"Photo > Develop Settings > Copy settings" seems to copy only settings that have been adjusted. It doesn't copy white balance settings if it is wasn't changed in Lightroom. It means that if I later paste settings to a photo with different default white balance values, it doesn't change white balance of that photo.
