Thank you, I use the same tool to straighten panoramas ---- but like all editing; don't over do it.
Interesting use of guides that I never used as I have grown used grids

[@billblakely]

You're welcome! Glad you liked it. Guides are handy. You can add just as many as you need. Grids don't provide that flexibility.

WB color corection for best realistic colors [real estate]. What method do you know? Tks!

[@billblakely]

I don't have a "method," If shooting RAW I correct white balance in the Develop Persona. It's on the basic tab. Otherwise I just use the white balance adjustment layer in the Photo Persona. On top of that I would use a selective colour adjustment and maybe an HSL adjustment as well. Or you could just use an HSL adjustment. The colour balance adjustment layer can be quite useful too. It's similar to the white balance adjustment but it lets you target shadows, mid-tones and highlights separately.
