Not sure if this is what you mean, but when you place your section view through the centerline, you can right click on the section line and uncheck "Show Entire Line". The section line will then show only the end arrows and section designator name.

Your English is actually pretty decent!!!
On top of what Chris said, understand tha if you ahve to lengthen or shorten the section line you may have to toggle this back on.

Try this:
Section tool, select the view. For your first point hover over the midpoint of either end of the cylinder the drag the "rubber band" toward the centerline endpoint and pick as close to the extension as possible. I don't think you will be able to snap to the exact endpoint. Then drag the section line toward the endpoint of the other centerline extension and pick the second point. Place the view.
If your section line does not end up exactly how you want it, right click on it and select Edit. It opens up as a sketch. You can place dimansions and constraints on it just like any other sketch, until it looks exactly hopw you want it.

Thanks for all replies.
If what Chris outlined for you is not what you aere looking for then I suggest you place an idea in the Inventor IdeaStation
that does. Then place a link to this thread in that idea along with a link to the idea here in this thread.

Hopefully this may help you in some way... using center lines to get section view is easy if the center line is horizontal or vertical yes? But when the center line is at an angle the cursor does not like to snap or lock on to the center line. What I tried after reading your post was to turn the parent view the angle needed to make the center line a horizontal line or vertical- and it worked. So rotate your parent view and then attempt the section view using the center line and the section view will still be at the correct orientation.
Good luck
