Short description of error
Trying to use Blender for making Storyboards and Animatics and had problems with scenes and grease pencil objects

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

i create three scenes; one for the animatic (video editing workspace) and two scenes with grease pencil objects
I placed the grease pencil scenes on the sequencer of the animatic scene workspace
I switch to one grease pencil scene and try to go to the draw mode and it doesn't work
I switch to the other grease pencil scene and the draw mode works
I switch back to first scene and try to reselect the grease pencil object; try to activate the draw mode again; it doesn't work
I switch to the other scene and activate the draw mode and it works
I am not able to get into the draw mode of the first scene; only in the second scene

@mendio Could you try to reproduce it? I'm no totally sure about the workflow here.

@antoniov seems to be something related to "Lock object mode" in edit menu when there are more than one scene. I was able to switch modes again after turning off this checkbox.

I cannot reproduce the problem.

@tkress, from what I saw in the video, the grease pencil object is not really selected when you click on it through the outliner.
We need the file to find out if it really is a bug or some configuration causes it.

It is also possible that this problem has already been fixed in the last builds.
