System Information
Operating system: Linux-6.4.6-gentoo-x86_64-AMD_Ryzen_Threadripper_1950X_16-Core_Processor-with-glibc2.37 64 Bits, X11 UI
Graphics card: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT (gfx1100, LLVM 15.0.7, DRM 3.52, 6.4.6-gentoo) AMD 4.6 (Core Profile) Mesa 23.3.0-devel (git-50c29e1ffa)

Blender Version
Broken: version: 4.0.0 Alpha, branch: main, commit date: 2023-08-08 20:16, hash: 5cdec2f12ab0
Worked:

Short description of error
When selecting with mouse clicks the selection mode in the header determines which component is selected.
In Grease Pencil sculpt mode this behaves as expected. If it's set to "points", selecting will select points. If it's set to "stroke" it will select entire strokes.

When switching to vertex paint mode this is not the case. Instead it will select components based on the selection mode that is set in sculpt mode.

The ideal behavior imo would be to have all grease pencil modes share the active selection mode.
This makes it easier to manage and simpler to use.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  • Change the keymap preferences to right click select (Selection shortcuts in left click select are partially broken atm)
  • Add a Gpencil Monkey
  • Switch to Sculpt Mode
  • Enable point selection mode
  • Select some points with RMB and Shift RMB
  • Switch to Vertex Paint mode
  • Make sure to use stroke selection mode
  • Select some strokes with RMB and Shift RMB (Notice how it will instead select points)

Looks like a long standing problem (broken in 2.83 too)
Is this a known issue/limitation?
@antoniov ^


oh, even LMB selection fails to select points/strokes in other interaction modes (never noticed this before 😅 )

#110960 will at least handle that 👍
