  2. Select components or solid bodies to be included in the center of mass calculation.
  3. Click OK. Click to select the center of mass to display its coordinates in the global coordinate system.
To delete the center of mass

  2. Right-click the desired center of mass, and click Delete.
To show or hide the center of mass

Hide the center of mass to exclude it from other model calculations.

To measure from center of mass to other objects in your design

You can measure the distance from the center of mass to other objects in your design - edges, faces, other center of mass, for example. Click Measure from the Inspect drop-down, and select the desired objects to measure their distance.
