You can step your section line, but you cannot bend it. If you want to do this you need to place more than one section line / marker.

If you mean step (or break) the section line then first place it and then select it.
Drag the centre node on the section line and one of the pet palette options will be to 'break' the section line.
This will allow you to stagger it around elements in you plan.

You can add more than one break.

... I think he would like to rapresent the section (it is a very limited section in height and width) in the floor plan. It is very useful for structural plans.
I posted that as wish long time ago ...
One workaround is to generate all these sections and overlap onto the floor plan in the layout.

Yes to add the little section overlays in plan as per the diagram I would create separate little sections for each.
Then in the layouts overlay each of those sections onto the plan - position and rotate as necessary.

You won't see them like this in Archicad itself - you will see just the plan and separate sections.
But remember it is the layout that becomes the document you will print.
Archicad is just the model and the documents are views of that model (placed in layouts) that can be combined to achieve the documentation you need.

You can 'bend' interior elevations, but probably can't give those section like markers.

i put section in layaout. and than copy paste to floor plan! but it is not linked anymore

Don't try to do it all in the floor plan.
You can't display a section in the floor plan.

Place the plan on a layout.
Now place the section on the same layout and crop it to the size you want, position it and rotate it as required.

That is now the document you publish.
