I have some clerestory windows that are above the cut plane in a plan view that will not display, how do I get them to show?

This is what "plan regions" are for. You can find them on the View Tab

and what if I need the lines of the window set to dashed? In my country, all objects above cut plane are drawn with dashed lines

Probably the easiest thing to do is use the "linework tool" to change the display of the lines to dashed.
The "linework" tool is the icon that looks like an old fashioned fountain pen. It allows you line by line graphic over-ride of any line in an object. If you use it set to dashed lines an touch all the lines you want to change the display of it should work for you. Remember, this is only changing the display of "lines" not actually adding any lines. You can also set things to be invisible or any other line style. If you want to get things back the way they norammaly display, set the linework tool to "by category".

I don't know what your needs are but in addition to the linework tool, you also have over-ride graphics by element where an entire element can be set to a different lineweight and line type. You can also use filters to do this.

Hi jframe ! I recently solve it by using "line work" tool and "plan region"! You can check my video at this link:
