Show PMI

In the Electrode environment, as electrode assembly drawings do not have views (they have frames instead) and the view creation mechanism is automatic, this option enables you to hide or show PMI in electrode assembly drawings (select the checkbox to show the PMI).

By default the option is selected and also shows PMI at lower levels.
