Is it possible to verify the mass and inertia that calculated from geometry in SimMechanics 2nd generation?

I want to see mass and inertia of the solid that calculated from geometry in SimMechanics 2nd generation. But, I can't find the way.

Have you found the answer to your question?
I actually have the same question if someone or the author could answer the question.

In release R2017b, the numerical values calculated by Simscape Multibody 2G are accessible to the user from the Solid block dialog.

Is it also possible for the program to read this data.
For controller design it is useful to know what mass/inertia the model is using to compute the motion. If this can be read and used automaticaly no manual updating of values is needed when a change is made to the geometry.
