        The problem seems to arise when two paths are combined by erasing its overlapping parts. When I then draw a line over this shape (does not have to be closed) the whole newly created line is erased, instead of only the part up to the intersection. After this happens the tool appears to be broken, and only whole lines, or completely different lines, are erased. Creating a new layer does not change this buggy behaviour. I have to pick the object select tool and delete all paths, then go back to the pencil tool to make it work again. It also sometimes messes up the Undo operation, but I have not been able to always replicate this. See the screenrecording for some of the bugs that occur.

            I have done some quick tests and it seems to work as it should! Thanks!

                Yes, that does indeed work now.

                Thank you!

                However, I am now noticing that when I have the brush tool selected it seems like it is randomly switching back to the pencil tool whenever I move my pen close to the tablet or move it away (basically when the tablet sees a "tool switch" between the pen and presumably my fingers)?

                  @fde101 Is it doing this after using the eraser and moving back to Pencil (and then Bursh), or in any tool use sequence?
                  I open a new bug on this one.

                    Actually, now that you bring it up, it doesn't seem to be specific to the tool.

                    Without picking up the pen, I opened a new document in VectorStyler, pressed "b" to switch to the brush tool, then moved the pen over the tablet.

                    It stayed on the brush.

                    I then flipped the pen to switch to the eraser, which worked, then flipped it back and was left with the brush.

                    I pressed "p" to switch to the pen tool.

                    When I moved the pen away from the tablet, then moved it back, it reverted to the brush tool.

                    If I then pick the pen up away from the tablet, switch to the pen tool, and move the eraser back to the tablet directly, then it switches to always reverting to the pen tool.

                    It seems that whatever tool was active when I switch to the eraser gets stuck there when I move the pen back toward or away from the tablet.
