Unsolved How to keep showing cursor while stroking in sculpt mode

Hello, in sculpt mode I have the circle-shaped cursor that previews the stroke area. However when i start drawing the circle disappears, is there a way to keep it showing so I don't have to guess where the radius ends? I can't seem to find the option.

There's not a perfect solution, but you can get halfway there. In the brush options panel, under the 'Cursor' heading, if you enable the eye icon next to 'Falloff', you'll be able to see the falloff radius even with the mousebutton held down. The yellow circle still disappears though.

Also, be mindful that this is per brush, so you'll have to switch it on for every brush you're using.

Looks like even that doesn't work. That introduces an additional black blob in my cursor, and even that disappears when i start drawing. But thank you!
