Why don't widgets disappear during replays?

I don't know if this is a bug, over sight, or design decision but...

When I have the option set to have the widgets disappear in the modern 3d view, so I can see my game in full screen glory, why do those same widgets stay on screen and obstruct my view on a replay?

As it is now I only use replay to get the report so I can submit glitches in player movement. Trying to use it to enjoy a great play in the game is a no go when the field is obscured by widgets.

Agreed. Doesn't make sense.

I agree as well. You can't even see the complete play, on replay, unless you hide or move at least one widget. That cannot have been the intent. Otherwise, what fun are the replays?

Thank you for bringing this up. I have some custom camera views setup to zoom in on outfielders and it's genuinely impossible to see what happens in the replay because of the condition you described
