Short description of error
I took the time to test all shortcuts related to Grease Pencil in the 4.0 release notes and here is a list all the issues I found.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Enable the relevant keymap and test these shortcuts:

Default

  • X = flip primary and secondary color - Works in Vertex paint mode but not Draw mode
  • Alt+I = deletes active GP keyframe but Shift+Del deletes all active keyframes (very different shortcuts for similar actions)

Industry Compatible

  • not sure what the removed GP Line Session drawing means? or what shortcut it used before?
  • Ctrl+A = Mask/Select Pie Menu - Works only in mesh sculpt mode
  • Alt+A = Auto-Masking Pie Menu - Works only in mesh sculpt mode
  • Shift+S = replaces I for the Animation Menu - Not added to Edit mode
  • Shift+Alt+S = Insert Blank Keyframe - Not added to Edit mode
  • Y = Active Layer Menu - Not added to Edit mode
  • Shift Y = Merge Layer - Does not exist
  • Alt Backspace/Delete = Delete Active Keyframe (Previously on D Backspace/Delete) - Alt Backspace/Delete doesn't exist, only Shift Backspace/Delete = Delete all active keyframes & works only in Edit & Object modes. Strangely 3.6 has both Shift Backspace/Delete & D Backspace/Delete to do the same thing
  • L = Toggle Stabilize Stroke - Does not exist
  • Ctrl+L seems to be mentioned in "Brush Size & Select Linked" then again under "Other"
  • [ = Toggle Toolbar/Channels - It's Ctrl+[
  • ] = Toggle Sidebar - It's Ctrl+]
  • 1,2,3 don't switch selection mode when in GP Edit mode (they work in GP vertex paint and sculpt modes. In object mode they switch to Edit but then don't switch selection)

Thanks for the report, @MumuMundo. We appreciate you taking the time to test the Grease Pencil shortcuts in the 4.0 release and providing us with a detailed list of the issues you encountered.

I tested the "flip primary and secondary color" X key and can confirm that it does not work in Draw Mode.

According to the description in !108791, this should work for Draw, Paint & Sculpt modes.

Therefore I can confirm it as a bug.

I'll have a look at these. Most issues mentioned in this report are a problem with the release notes, not the keymap.
Not all modes are 100% consistent with their shortcuts.

X for color flipping in Draw mode is conflicting with deleting the current frame, yes.
There's no bug here. The shortcut is working just like in previous releases.
But I'll check with the grease pencil module if the shortcut conflict could be resolved so color flipping can be supported for painting.

I checked again about the missing grease pencil shortcuts in the IC keymap. Can confirm.

I update the release notes to fix incorrect information. Other fixes that I'll do for the keymap from this list are:

  • Alt A = Missing from GP sculpt mode
  • Shift S = 'Animation' menu in GP edit mode is using I instead
  • Shift Alt S = Insert Blank Keyframe - Not added to Edit mode
  • Y = Active Layer Menu - Not added to Edit mode
  • Shift Y = Merge Down - Does not exist
  • Shift Backspace/Delete = Delete All Active Frames is missing from every mode except Draw
  • Backspace/Delete = Delete Menu is missing from all modes except Edit

The support for color flipping in Draw mode is a to do. That can be handled afterwards for 4.1.
Same for 123 keys for non mesh objects.

Thanks for fixing! Just note that the release notes still say Shift Backspace/Delete = Delete Active Keyframe (it should be All Active Keyframes)
