I think that it would be useful to have (under the "measure" function) the possibility to evaluate section properties. Here is an example taken from ProE or SWX:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section properties of the selected faces of Studio

Area = 187.84956 millimeters^2
Centroid relative to output coordinate system origin: ( millimeters )
 X = 1.70028
 Y = -84.00000
 Z = 0.00000
Moments of inertia of the area, at the centroid: ( millimeters ^ 4 )
 Lxx = 13991.74606 Lxy = 0.00000 Lxz = 0.00000
 Lyx = 0.00000 Lyy = 43795.03378 Lyz = 0.00000
 Lzx = 0.00000 Lzy = 0.00000 Lzz = 29803.28772
Polar moment of inertia of the area, at the centroid = 43795.03378 millimeters ^ 4
Angle between principal axes and part axes = 90.00000 degrees
Principal moments of inertia of the area, at the centroid: ( millimeters ^ 4 )
 Ix = 13991.74606
 Iy = 29803.28772
Moments of inertia of the area, at the output coordinate system: ( millimeters ^ 4 )
 LXX = 1339458.21264 LXY = -26829.32898 LXZ = -0.00000
 LYX = -26829.32898 LYY = 44338.09761 LYZ = 0.00000
 LZX = -0.00000 LZY = 0.00000 LZZ = 1355812.81813
