Draw inside object filled with freeform gradient
The moment you attempt to paste artwork into an object which has a free form gradient, the gradient fill disappears and can only be retrieved if you perform undo or unclip the pasted artwork.
I honestly would love to be able to draw inside or paste into artwork filled with a free form gradient without the free form gradient disappearing. Please note that am not talking of workarounds here…

Freeform gradient is a half-baked poorly integrated tech. So sad it’s left unattended, in its infant state.

Operating system: MacOS Monterey
Illustrator version: 26.5When I try to draw inside a vector I made, the colour of the vector changes and I was advised in the Adobe forum that this is likely a bug with the freeform gradient.
Here's what I've done:I have created a vector with a freeform gradient.
I press the vector and choose draw inside.
I click outside the vector.
I choose the brush tool and change to the colour I want.
I draw inside the vector.
The colour of the vector changes.
I have also recorded a video so that you can see what happens.
