For MEP elements such as round duct, you can turn on the display of centerlines in hidden line plan and elevation views. ​Centerlines are not displayed for oval or rectangular duct and are not available for 3D views. ​

To display centerlines for duct, modify the display properties for Duct and Duct Fittings in the Visibility/Graphic Overrides dialog. ​For complex fittings, you can override the default centerline by editing the family, adding a model line that represents the centerline of the fitting geometry, and setting its subcategory to centerline. ​

Centerlines can also be enabled for pipe and conduit.
