System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19041-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 456.71

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.91.0, branch: master, commit date: 2020-11-25 08:34, hash: 0f45cab862
Worked: Never (2.79+)

Short description of error
Bones can't be selected while in Weightpaint mode and Face Paintmaks option is activated.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on the Select with Left Mouse button option and Default Blender Keymap:

PaintMaskAndWeightPaint.blend

1- Open the attached file called PaintMaskAndWeightPaint.blend
2- You see the Cube rigged with 2 bones already in pose mode and cube in Weightpaint mode
3- You can change Bone selection while weightpainting pressing the CTRL + LMB (Left Mouse Button), there is any problem for now
4- Now, if you activate the Face Paint Mask button at the top-left and try to select another bone like before pressing CTRL+LMB on a bone, bone will not be selected, instead of that, you select a face mask. weightpaintaaas.jpg
5- If you go to keymap options, and deactivate the option "Select" from "Weight paint" to avoid select faces with CTRL + LMB, now if you try to select another bone, it will not select another mask face, but it will not select the new bone and will exit the Weight Paint mode.

This behaves like this since old versions of blender (tested om 2.79 and it's the same thing).
So it's not a regression (and maybe not even a bug).
But it seems to be valid to see the opinion of someone from the #animation_rigging team.

The thing is, its so annoying when you're adjusting bones weights and you have to change bone, but you cant when you are on facemask mode, its so slow to deactivate facemask to be able to change bone.

Thanks for letting the Animation & Rigging team know about it.

I would say this is quite explicitly defined behavior, but I don't know if this could be improved easily. I will confirm, so module can consider this case.

Yeah, I believe this is the intended behavior. But I agree that it's not desireable behavior.

I think this is deserving of a design task. I'll bring it up with the animation module.

I'll consider this fixed with #115409: Fix #44834: Add bone selection icon next to face and vertex selection in weight paint mode

  • Bone selection mode is now explicit
  • It is easy and quick to switch between the modes using 1, 2 and 3
