Description Takiro Ryo 2024-04-21 17:27:50 UTC 
When you working on a file and have some steps in your undo history, then you undo one or more and use the color sampler tool the undo history gets reset to that point, making it impossible to use the redo function although nothing happened that should prevent a redo.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Open a new Document
2. Optional: open the undo history docker to better see the issue
3. Draw a few strokes to populate the undo history
4. Undo one ore more Steps
5. Use the color sampler and pick a color from the canvas
6. Observe in the undo history how all the steps that ware undone are now gone

OBSERVED RESULT

The Undo history gets reset to the current point and it's not possible to redo anymore.

EXPECTED RESULT

The undo history should stay the same since no change has been made to the document that justifies discarding the steps on the undo stack. You should still be able to redo after just sampling a color from the canvas. sampling a color should not interact with the undo history at all. 

Tested it on the 5.2.2 AppImage version and it affects other users too
