System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19045-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 546.29

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.6.7, branch: blender-v3.6-release, commit date: 2023-12-11 16:28, hash: cbd81f283d58
Worked: (2.82)

Short description of error
Grease pencil objects (being vertices) can't generate vertex groups when parented to an armature (rig)

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Create a Suzzane
  2. Create a grease pencil empty object. Switch to draw mode
  3. Change grease pencil options to "draw over surface". Draw on top of Suzzane
  4. Create a metarig human armature. Move Suzzane to be the head to create appropriate weights (vertex groups). Click generate RIG.
  5. Select the grease pencil object, shift click select the RIG, Ctrl+P to parent.
  6. Select the rig, go to pose mode. Move the head. Grease pencil vertices stay behind. They didn't inherit any vertex group.
    I'm attaching a video to explain this case.

The above workflow used to work in Blender 2.82. Here's a video>>

Hi, thanks for the report. Can confirm. Weights are not generated when parented to generated rig.
