After changing the origin the strokes cannot be changed in any way using different tools including eraser or sculpt.

I have encountered an issue regarding strokes.
I cannot erase strokes that I drew yesterday.
Materials are not locked.
Attached is the file.

~~I have discovered the cause. ~~
~~- Draw a stroke~~
~~- Go to object mode~~
~~- Go to object -> apply -> all transforms~~
~~- Go to object -> set origin -> origin to geometry~~

~~Might be useful to remove this feature otherwise people who are used to applying transforms and centering their pivot may lose days of work.~~

Thanks for the report. I've not been able to replicate this in 3.3
In which blender version you're experiencing this?

Are we talking about the same erase tool from the draw mode of GPencil object?

I am talking about the erase tool in draw mode.
I am using the latest Stable version, reinstalled today, 3.2.1.

If you open the supplied file, are you able to use the grease pencil to erase the elements in any frame but the last frame using the erase tool in draw mode?

Thanks for the information. Yes, I can erase last frame too. Can you share the screen recording of the problem you're experiencing.
I suspect you're seeing strokes of the previous frame(the one in green color), which you can disable from Viewport overlays > Onion Skin: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/grease_pencil/properties/onion_skinning.html

Here is a quick video: https://youtu.be/DRSjRDRWTh8

I recant what I said about reproducing it in a new file. That is not 100% accurate.
The video outlines what I am experiencing.

Also, I am developer too, so I understand how difficult a bug like this can be to diagnose. Should I have any new information, I will share it.

I can replicate and I think I know what is the reason and it's related to change the origin of the object.

Thanks for looking into this report Antonio :)
I'll mark this report as confirmed (I haven't tested this since my last message)
