Blender convert mesh to Grease Pencil object. When I exit from material tab, duplicate this object and convert it to mesh - command works, but after this I go to material tab and mesh turns to grease pencil back and produce error when I try to convert it to mesh. I delete material and conversion works and object turns to a mesh but material lost forever.

Having a hard time reproducing this:

  • could you try to come up with the steps from the default scene to reproduce this?
  • or do you have a file we can open and then do a couple of steps that lead to the problem?

cannot reproduce

And yes, I can see the problem in the file from the report (it is just that I cannot reproduce it from scratch or with the steps provided)

I picked blendfile before with corrupted object. Here I pick actual scene where all started.

Please look deeply in collections with suffix _S - it's origin meshes for instances in particle systems. As I see all meshes that was instanced turns their mats in gp mats.

Also I can assume that it's happens only with procedural materials without image textures. And used Annotation tool with draw mode above meshes. It's just happens and unfortunately I can not say more. At some moment I just noticed it.

@Philipp Oeser (lichtwerk) I'm looking a t the bug too. Try to find where BKE_material_init_gpencil_settings() is called. If we found why this is called, we will catch the bug.

@Aleksandr (viadvena) While we found the solution to the bug, you can recover your material running these lines in console:

ma = bpy.context.active_object.material_slots[0].material
bpy.data.materials.remove_gpencil_data(ma)

Thank you! I appreciate this!

I'm going to create an script to fix your file in one step.

Antonio Vazquez (antoniov) added a comment.Nov 13 2019, 10:44 AM

This script fix the file:

import bpy

for ob in bpy.data.objects:
    if ob.type == 'MESH':
        for slot in ob.material_slots:
            bpy.data.materials.remove_gpencil_data(slot.material)

Thanks a lot! It works) Could you please to help me with another thing: how can I force recompile shaders? Sometimes materials completely won't to updates. I struggled with this few times and in this situations helps install new build of blender. But may be there is much more esthetic way.

@Antonio Vazquez (antoniov): great!

Think we confirm this then? (or do we wnat to merge with T63707?)

Antonio Vazquez (antoniov) added a comment.Nov 13 2019, 11:14 AM

We could merge both, but I'm unable to reproduce it, so no idea how fix it.

Ah, I was thinking you were squashing the bug already.

While we found the solution to the bug

Anyways, since both issues seems to stem from the same roots [Annotations in play...], will merge these reports.
@Aleksandr (viadvena) : lets continue discussion in T63707, and please keep us up to date if you have found a way to reproduce [thanx for providing test_MatBug.blend -- but the corruption has already taken place in that file as well, and I am still not able to reproduce... will try more though...]
