How to get the center mass of physics body?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I apply applyforce() to my physical object and I don’t want to rotate. So I set applyforce(0, 0.2 , object.x, object.y). But the object rotates. I think the object.x and object.y is not in the center of the physical object. Can anyone help me how to get the center mass of physics body? Hoping for someone to reply. Thanks in advance.
