I don't know how exactly this engine ticks, but I can to to guess: it
searches for the lightest pixel in the image and makes GIMP believe
that it is white and then it shifts other colors appropriately. But
that's my guess. Probably gimp-help package contains information you
want to know.
No the official gimp documentation on the homepage doesn't contain
anything about it. You can verify it here: http://docs.gimp.org/en/ch09s07s11.html
It doesn't even appear in the screenshot of the menu.
Your idea how the automatical white balance works sounds good. IMHO the
automatical white balance on a digital camera should work the same way,
shouldn't it?
Some info on Levels dialog ("Werte" im Deutschen, soweit ich das
verstehe) is here: http://docs.gimp.org/de/ch06s05s06.html
Yes, that's correct. Thanks!
Cheers,
Timo

[Gimp-user] automatical white balance
Hi all, can anyone explain how the automatical white balance works? - I can not find anything about it in the documentation. It can be found at the menu in Layers-Colours-Auto-White Balance. I'm not sure if this are exactly the right words because I use the german version. How does this feature know which pixel should be white? - I expected something like the manual white balance in digital cameras: Pointing and selecting an area which should be white, the rest of the picture will be changed accordingly.

Open Levels dialog (Layer- Colour-Levels), click on the right color picker in its bottom that is in charge for white and then pick a color that seems to be the whitest one. Changes will apply. You can also show this color levels tool the blackest and the grayest dots ;-) Hey, that's a cool feature! Thanks a lot!
