Is there a way to keep gizmos on while having the animation play?

I've been interested in using Blender for motion graphics and I've been playing around with dynamics and multiple rigid bodies. One thing I've noticed that I haven't been able to find an option to toggle on and off is the gizmo (moving arrows) while having the animation play out. One instance where I found my frustrations is while using force fields and moving the force field around while the animation play out to see a real time view of the interactions with rigid bodies. Hasn't anyone found a workaround for this?
