Select the witness line you want to remove then RMB erase witness line.

Depending on your drawing settings, you will get different results. If you need to, go to file - prepare - drawing properties - detail options change

and set the option clip_dim_arrow_style NONE

then you can "drag" the "none" arrow side to however you want it.

If you use a shown dimension in a drawing view it will appear with arrows across the diameter. After showing the dia dimension use the flip arrows options and it should create what you want.

It is not so simple.

I have made a Detailed view of a cross-section. Center line isn't there to create a diametral dimension. Any thoughts?

Show your dimension from the model OR create your dimension in the main view and move it to the detail view OR temporarily change your detail view boundary to include the centerline, create the dimension, then re-sketch the boundary as desired.
