In a jewelry design scenario using nomad, the weight of the model is a very critical parameter that the modeler needs to keep an eye on and hollow out the model appropriately to achieve the effect of weight reduction, as the weight control of the precious metal is related to the final production cost.  
If nomad can be like the 3d printing plugin in zb, it can always measure the volume of the model, and even customize the conversion density, it will be a great experience! We no longer need to export the model to other software to measure, then make adjustments, back and forth. This would also be a huge boost to the use of nomad in jewelry! (And perhaps other industries that are sensitive to the weight of their models are in desperate need of it as well.)

+1 Agreed! I work in the adult toy industry and knowing the weight of heavier items before making the mold is very important! I was hoping this was already a feature so I came to look on here.

The measure tool has a volume computation.
