Blender Version
Broken: 2.8 rc2

Short description of error
Grease Pencil - sculpt and edit mode stop having effect on strokes after some time - I'm struggling to replicate it reliably, but it seems that after experimenting with the software for half an hour or more eraser stops having an effect, in edit mode points can't be moved, and in sculpt mode none of the brushes have any effect on a line. It also becomes impossible to select strokes and delete in draw mode (ctrl-alt click lasso selection or box selection). Saving and reopening does not resolve. attaching broken .blend file

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

I don't see anything in your file, but I see you have the layer and all materials locked, so all editing is disabled.

ah i see, I didn't understand that locking a material locked all strokes with that material assigned. The stroke i made is only visible when the viewport is rendered with EEVEE. Thanks for pointing that out, sorry about that. Perhaps a tool tip or warning could help prevent confusion for users? Perhaps when you attempt to sculpt but materials are locked, an icon on the cursor indicates you're attempting to sculpt a locked layer/material?
