Is there a way to display the center of mass (cm) and center of volume (cv) in a draft?

Hi,

at least in V18 (Center of Mass):
select the view
RMB --> Properties
-- Card --> Display
there Button 'Parts List Options'
Click 'List Coordinate Systems'
- Select --> Center of Mass
on the right --> activate Show (leave Reference Options unchecked)

Quit with OK
Back in Draft click 'Upadte Views'

But you will hardly see it -- it's a just tiny little dot, which however
can be used in dimensioning ... I don't know who designned that feature :-(

you can create special style of the line (very thick or coloured) and add this style to the Coordinate system/Center of mass feature in the Drawing View Properties/display window...
