i use back button for focus. But the point moves around, so i have to press another button to make it move to the center. Is there a way that it is just centered all the time ?

Thank you. I have the same camera and I also use BBF. There are a lot of options for this, but can get mine to stay in the centre. These are my settings for Av mode, I have different ones for tracking people and animals:
In the Purple (Focus) section:
P1
AF Operation AI Focus
AF Area Spot AF
Whole are track On
Subject detect Auto
Eye detection left but can change
Switch subjects 1
Focus Mode AF
P2 Servo cases: left in Auto
P3
One Shot prior Focus
Preview Disable
Lens drive On
AF beam LED
P4
Touch & Drag Off
Limit AF areas Spot AF
AF area control M-Fn
Sensitivity 0
Orientation link (bottom option in list)
Limit subject Auto
L/R eye detect Off
P5
MF peaking Off
Focus Guide Off
Movie servo Disable (I shoot only stills)
Wrench Menu:
Custom buttons
shutter 1/2 press Metering start
M-Fn Direct AF area select
AF-ON Metering and AF start
* *
AF button Eye detect
SET Set AF to center
Multi controller Direct AF selection
If you want to try this lot out, I suggest you save your current Av settings to C1 mode
Then go into C2 and make the settings above, and save those to C2
Try them out and let me know how it goes.

If you read the list (I have indicated the menu pages and. chapters involved) and follow the menus in sequence doing all of these, then judge the result.

The ref to the 6DII is in your main title. You can correct that.
