Heres an idea, I know the exterior window shot is an establishing shot for the apartment scene buyt what if we removed the windows entirely? Just make it part of the building? That way there is no discontinuity with Leias apartment or the window in the roof becuase its obviously some other building that Leia is in. Im not even sure I like this idea but it popped in my brain so Im throwing it out there.

Thats's certainly an interesting solution AxiaEuxine! But I'd miss that classic long-shot of Leia pacing inside the apartment, and it would seem a little strange to focus so much on the 'cloud-car' travelling around a portion of a supposedly different building to one where we'd then cut to Leia as being in....
