I create a lot of gears and I want to make section views of the gear on the center line of the part. What is the easiest way to make the section line be coincident to the center line of my part?

If you are talking about in a drawing, put your construction line on the paper and then make it coincident to the center plane. You DID create them with center planes, didn't you???

Add a sketch point and add a concentric between a circular feature or sketch in the drawing. Next add a coincident relationship between the point and line. Make sure the line is in the correct orientation for your purpose.

View-Origins, and draw a centerline and add midpoint relation between origin and line (you have the origin in the middle right?). Then you hide origins again.

To Kman.
You are give very good advices to him too.
This what you say is what I was too doing. But now I make relize that if I go to the VIEW->TEMPORAY AXIS I the not need to make center concentrics point any more.
Simple save me on steps. I discover after many very many the times to make the center point. Now it goes for free by temp axis. When done, he turns off temporary axises viewing.
