If you're using Cadimage windows, select the Open panel type

If someone doesn't have CADimage Tools I can offer the following 2 minute solution:

In the Sash Options page of the Window Settings Dialog you should select the Custom Panel option. In this case you can select a custom Window panel. So now all you need to do is create a custom panel with no 3D geometry.

To achieve that I placed two Hotspots at the lower left and upper right corners of a 1x1 meter rectangle in the Floor Plan. I saved that as a Windows Sash with the File\Libraries and Objects\Save Selection As\Window Sash.. menu command. Save it under the name of "Empty Window Sash" or something. Now this can be selected as a Custom Panel for the Window and there will be no 3D geometry to the Window Sash.

This GDL Object is saved in the Embedded Library. You can also save it out into a folder and add it to your Office Library so it will be available for all Window objects in the future.
