Removing the cursor while drawing with grease pencil and sculpting

Just wondering something that seems to me to be pretty basic.  I would love to disable the cursor when I begin to draw with grease pencil or sculpt in sculpt mode.  Anyone know how to do this in settings or even an add on?  Thanks for your time.

    Uncheck the 3d cursor in the overlays menu

    You can also switch to a "2d animation" workspace which is optimized for drawing (meaning all the irrelevant stuff is turned off)


    Hope that helps.

    Happy drawing.

    Thanks for the reply.  The 3d cursor doesnt bother me, in fact I find it really useful for grease pencil drawing.  My question was aimed at eliminating the arrow of your mouse cursor while GP drawing or sculpting.  I am using a pen display and having the white arrow between me and my subject matter is really annoying. Ideally if it disappeared once the pen was engaged would be best.  Even minimizing the mouse cursor while drawing or sculpting would be amazing.  Like I said it seems like a simple UI toggle, and one that other programs seem to have dealt with, I just cant seem to find it in blender.

      All the same, thanks.

    Oh, try this

    Uncheck the "Show Brush" in the display.

    On my system this doesn't work with the official 2.80 release but it does with the current builds.  (which means it should work for 2.81 which is meant to be released any day now)
