How can I display volume of any mesh object?
I can display length of an edge, the area of the face, but nothing for volume. Is it possible?

You can use the Print3D add-on for that. Activate it in user prefs (Ctrl-Alt-U) and it will appear in the Tool Shelf of the 3D View. Top line buttons let you calculate volume and total area.

$\begingroup$ For me, the addon was called
3D Print Toolboxand you open it on the absolute left - there are vertical "tabs" Tools, Create, ....,3D Print Toolbox(look below "File" menu) $\endgroup$ – jave.web Jul 10 '19 at 17:06 -
$\begingroup$ How does this work in Blender 2.8? I don't see the menu. $\endgroup$ – Aaron Franke Jan 24 '20 at 6:56

In 2.8 First activate the 3D-Print Toolbox addon: Edit->Preference->Add-ons and search 'print'. Now you can find the toolbox in the sidebar panel (press n if it does not show) Look in the 3D-print tab under statistics.
