Can’t draw out the line I’ve already done

[Kurb]

So I’m working on iPad pro

I had this problem many times since 4 days, I draw, everything is going fine, I am using layers as usual... but then, it seems that I can’t draw anymore if I go my pensil above the lines I’ve already made. So I try new layers to work on that maybe ive selected something that locked it, but it also seems that I can’t draw at all on the new layer. I couldnt find any option to change that, so my solution was to uncheck the synced tools between documents  in the preferences and restart the program everytime (I hate when I loose my preset tools but it is the only solution I found).

Hi Kurb,

 

Welcome to the forum

 

Can you pleas check in the Layers studio that a pixel layer is selected, if this is the case can you please send me a screen recording of this issue

If I select the first layer I can’t draw at all, and on this precise layer, can only draw on the old lines.

Nothing is selected with the select tool, it must be an option I made by mistake all the time but really don’t know what it is.

And it seems to stay on each project

What about "Protect Alpha"? That might be the case.

Best regards!

Yes, it's the protect alpha that's enabled. Tap the alpha icon in the context bar on bottom to disable it (the thin outline around the circle should disappear).
