    Okay.. So I have painted an image on a layer.. I used the ALL STROKES, IN ORIGINAL modes. In the past I have been able to paint over the strokes.. or erase them. NOW.. it’s not letting me do either. It doesn’t matter which mode I switch it to.. or if I move farther into the timeline.. the darn thing is still there. Perhaps it was stupid of me to paint it IN ORIGINAL.. but I need to have all strokes following the spot on the video where it needs to go.

    HEEEELLLLPPP!

    Ta, very much!

    Vector Paint draw strokes from the first frame forward. When using All Strokes, VP will composite each painted frame over the previous. I.e., erasing will not affect anything drawn in following frames, only current and previous.

    That’s fine.. but I can’t paint OVER the strokes either.. which is actually what I want to do.. and I’ve tried moving forward in the timeline to do so.. and still it won’t let me paint over them.

    Can’t reproduce it here with 9.0.2, works as expected for me. Perhaps you’ll have to report it to Adobe.
