Is there a way to zoom and center a selected or active part (sorry dont know correct words, as my installation is not english) in one click? (menu, mouse, function key)

Thank you in advance
 
Pressing the "Home" key will give you a trimetric view and fit the view to your screen.

There is a command called "Fit view to selection" that will zoom in on whatever you have selected at the time. In NX8 it can be found in the View -> Operation menu. The exact location may depend on your version, if I remember correctly, older versions didn't have it in the menu by default (even when running full menus).

Try the "Fit View to Selection", See attached image.
It does what i think you are looking for as long as the selected object has " a bounding box". - Not all objects has that but components and solids do.

Regards,
Tomas
