If I draw two circles and then extrude one, the sketch that the two circles are in gets hidden. In order to extrude the second circle I have to find the sketch and show it first. Is there a way to keep the sketch visible after extruding an item on it?

This is by default for now. I don’t like this behaviour too. Maybe it will be changed in a future.
