Short description of error
Weight paint: Gradient tool does not have its own setting for its functionality such as falloff or blend mode. These settings are copied from Draw mode and there are no indication that this is happening for the user.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
- Select or create cube or any other primitive object.
- Go to weight paint mode with selected object.
- Select Gradient tool and try to create gradient onto the model - try to change falloff curve or blend mode setting - can't do that since there is no such settings when this tool is selected.
- Select Draw tool and modify brush settings: falloff curve and blend mode setting.
- Select Gradient tool and try to create weight gradient with it onto the model - see how the gradient is affected by the blend mode and falloff curve of different tool.
