How to dimension a drawing of part made from a inscribed polygon

I've made a part based off the inscribed polygon sketch tool.
I now want to make a drawing of the part but cannot find a way to mark the circle the polygon is dimensioned off, is there a way to do this?

I have a work around that you can use to have a center mark on the polygon. From the parts studio, I extruded the circle used for the polygon as a surface and thickened the surface to .001mm. Next, I inserted both parts into the drawing. This allows me to create a center mark for the polygon.

We are working on having the ability to create views of singular sketches and the ability to show sketched is a view. Please feel free to submit an improvement request.5

Thanks, I'll do that!
I was hoping not to have change the model. If Onshape is already working on it though then I'm happy, I'll do as you suggest and submit an IR to add my support.1
