Short description of error
While doing some regular testing in 2.83, I noticed that the current vertex painting system does not work nicely with Sculpt Mode. I thought the problem might have been related to Delay Viewport Updates because the bug only appeared when sculpting and undoing/redoing in relation to how zoomed in or out the viewport camera was to the model itself. However, toggling it on and off did nothing, so I am left puzzled.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Take a human sized sculpt of several tens of thousands of vertices and paint it in Vertex Paint Mode.
  1. Switch to Sculpt Mode.
  1. Make any change to your sculpt with the tools available while zoomed in on the model.
  1. Zoom out. The vertex painting artefacts should be fully visible now.
  1. Use undo/redo to activate or deactivate the bug. The bug will disappear when the entire model is visible in the viewport, but appear if you are zoomed in and then you zoom out again.

Can confirm in this file (having trouble reproducing this from scratch though...)

I can cause glitches when going to material preview and solid shading, I think there is same underlying issue. But I can reproduce this even with files created from scratch.

T74694, T74622 are also about sculpt drawing glitches.

@Richard Antalik (ISS): if you have a way to repro from scratch: mind putting this in the task description?

@Pablo Dobarro (pablodp606) : mind checking?

@Dalai Felinto (dfelinto): to me, this is a High prio one, feel free to change back...

  1. Open Blender (glitches are more prominent on fresh run)
  2. Open file
  3. Switch viewport to Material Preview and immediately back to Solid

In some cases it was necessary to repeat step 3.

I have done more investigation on original file, and it seems that issue goes away when you remove other viewports from sculpting workspace. Will do more testing to narrow this down and upload new file if I find "root cause"

In this scenario the 'ac' (active vertex color) of the draw batch that sculpting generates contain uninitialized memory. Perhaps we should add a safeguard to regenerate all VBO.
