I cannot reproduce with 2.83 or 2.90. There was a bug on that, but I fixed, so please update to last version and test again.

If the problem persist, please put a step by step detail.

Exact steps to reproduce the error

Open blender
Select 2D animation under "new file"
Draw something with the default "ink pen" and "black" material
Press tab to enter Edit Mode
Press tab again to enter Draw mode
The brush changed to Airbrush and, I just noticed, the material also changed, to "Black Dots"

On both 2.83 and 2.90

Nope, cannot reproduce (in 2.83 and 2.90)
@GregoireDurrens Does this happen with Factory Defaults as well?

No, sorry I should have tried with factory defaults before. It doesn't do it with factory settings.

So that made me remember I have some custom brushes in my startup grease pencil file.
But it is still a surprising and tiny bit annoying behavior if we appended other brushes.

It works fine in 2.82 :

Maybe it's related to the fact that in the versions more recent than 2.82 the tab key doesn't work the same way as in 2.82 (in 2.82, in draw mode, tab brings to edit mode and tab again goes to object mode VS back to previous mode, which is kinda nice)

Thanks

@GregoireDurrens Did you created your custom brushes in 2.83 or it's a file from 2.82?

Grégoire Durrens commented

2020-06-23 22:26:03 +02:00

in 2.82
I just tried recreating a start up file by deleting all of these brushes and their textures (I cleaned all the orphans as well) but it still selects the airbrush.
Maybe I put the blend file here to see if you can reproduce the issue.

Should I recreate a start up file from scratch in 2.83 ?

Thank you @antoniov

@GregoireDurrens Yes, please try to recreate the file in 2.83 to check if still the problem exist.

Recreating the start up file with 2.83 works.
The problem is not happening anymore.

I guess forward compatibility of the start up file could be slightly improved but that's not critical at all in my opinion.

Thanks a lot for your help !

@GregoireDurrens I think we can close the report, no?

If you want, put here a copy of your startup file (2.82) version and I could try to find how improve the conversion, but we cannot consider it as a bug.

Yeah I agree, it's not worth reporting a bug.
Here are two startup files : 2.82 and the new 2.83 that I recreated.

startup2-82.blend
startup2-83.blend
