Hey everyone,

I've been trying to record one of my painting sessions while in Painter X, but I keep encountering an error that prevents me from saving the playback of the frame stacks.
Once I select all the different criteria, choose a destination and filename, and then try to save Corel will play the first second or so of animation and then create a WaterColor layer and present an error message that says: "Only Watercolor Brushes can be used on Watercolor layers."
Here is a screencap of the error:

I'm not sure why it's doing that, as my default layer isn't a watercolor layer, and I'm using the pencil tool.

Here are the preselected criteria that I've tried the most with:
1/10th of a second between frames
2 layers onion skin
24 bit color with 8 bit alpha
However, I've tried every setting amongst the options presented and have still received the same error.

I've only been using Painter X on a regular basis for about 6 months, so I'm by no means an expert.
I've also been using the tutorial provided by Corel here:

So, maybe I'm doing something wrong inadvertently?

Thanks in advance, and whatever help you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds very much like the following issue when used in combination with the Eraser tool;
