Description

### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [X] I have searched the existing issues

### Problem description

In TechDraw, the Detail view shows only the center marks of arcs shown in the Detail view.

Feature request: Show all center marks of the whole view also in DetailView.
As the center mark of the DetailView itself clutters the view, it should be suppressed.

Research direction

Start at the TechDraw DetailView entry point and trace how center marks are selected for the detail and source views. Compare the requested output with the attached examples, then verify that all source-view center marks appear while the DetailView's own center mark is suppressed.
