Hi Rino,
It's not the exactly same as in other programs, but there are two approaches:

(1) show center of rotation as arrows along XYZ, command:

cofr showPivot true

... and you can then use false to turn them off if you want...

- OR -

(2) use a BILD file, e.g. open the example file "XYZ-axes.bild" linked to the BILD format page:

<https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/formats/bild.html>
<https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimerax/docs/user/formats/XYZ-axes.bild>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
