can anyone else confirm that the gradient tool in weight paint mode is broken? i’m on macos and many of the options are missing. most notably i can’t set the blending mode so i can subtract or add gradient weights.

yep, same here.
I’m used to just use the simple draw tool for weight painting as a workaround, and just alt dragging for the gradient tool, those settings still work so you can just add and substract like that. ctrl+alt drag for radial gradient.
i just tried this and modifier while dragging just manipulate the viewport. do i need to remap a bunch of hotkeys for this to work?
also does anyone know if this is an intended change or a bug? if its the latter i’ll file a report, as its still in latest builds
No, this should work out of the box. Honestly, I think it’s more convenient than having to switch to the gradient tool all the time.
Turns out I had to disable “emulate 3 button mouse” for it to work, but now I’m good thanks!
I may still file a bug report even if it’s accessible via that alternative shortcut, I’m still not sure if I’m losing anything disabling that mouse feature. I work heavily with the trackpad which is an edge case I know, but I’ve become surprisingly proficient!
Ye, I feel you, using a trackpad myself a lot during the day.
You’re right, might be worth reporting it. I’d wait till after the curfew though, maybe that way it’d get more serious attention.
