Edit guides, affect selected only

Is there something wonky with my system, or is there a glitch of some sorts.  Whenever I'm in the third mode of edit guides Brush tool, with affect selected guides only checked, when i use the first brush tool to select a guide and second tool to sculpt it, it will not affect the selected guide, which turns yellow instead of red. and so i have to go back up to Edit guides Mode, then flip it back to Brush hair mode, and then it'll recognize the guide as red.  So every time I need to tweak one guide there's like an 8 step process.

attached is the image of the steps required to edit a single guide.

If I clear the selection in edit strands mode, brush tools will work correctly once, and then problem comes back.

V 2.2.8.18359

Need to edit like 500 guides tomorrow so not looking forward to 6,000 clicks to do it

 

Can someone provide me with a mel command to flip between brush tool and edit guides tool that's independent of Edit Guides modifier, so i can hotkey it instead of clicking all over the ui?

Hi Kosta,

 

I can reproduce this bug, we are looking into it. Thanks for reporting.

This issue is not reproducicle anymore on build 18442. Give it a try: https://ephere.com/plugins/autodesk/maya/ornatrix/downloads.html

Works perfectly once you make a new edit guide modifier but once you make a selection, then move the guide, then make another selection it gets locked into yellow state and requires toggling again.

I've scripted toggling back and forth and just hit a key, so while not an ideal fix it does work, despite having a little .5 second lag from firing off a script.

You can reproduce the issue in the new nightly build?

Yes with auto push away from surface it happens within a click or two, with autopush off, it doesn't happen at all. v.18422
