Guys, this is a part of a long site section that I wd like to show nothing but wall, floor and roof, for simplicity sake. Yet I got these door and window cuts/imprints on the wall. Yes, I turn off the Dr/window on template already. Can you help ?

 Those are the opening in the walls created by the doors and windows.  If you want to show the walls without opening, there are a couple of ways:

1. Reduce Far Clip Offset of the section view so the walls are out of range. 

2. Create the walls in Phase 1 and doors and windows in Phase 2.  Then set the view's phase status to Phase 1.

Hi Toan, my gosh, that's a lot of work, including possible future
complications/conflicts...

Neither method is 'a lot of work', nor can cause future complication/conflicts.  But it is my opinion.

Okay, maybe I can give you that for #2, but what about #1?

If you don't want door and window opening to show in section, you could set the wall projection as white color. Example below shows before and after you apply the category filter.

You could also play with the Depth Cueing. Maybe simply fading the background would suffice.
