Placing Doors and Windows

Ok here is my steps…

  1. click on the build & design button

  2. click on design building.¨

  3. place a slab on the ground or wall or on another item that you have made (dont click on the finished editing)
    (If you are going to put a window or a door on a wall you need to look at the pictures that shows how to place the slabs that Kythandra showing at the top of this thread but dont follow the steps only the slab pictures and then come back here.)

  4. Click on “Place Item” button… NOT the furniture (chair) button like someone thought earlier in this thread :smiley:

  5. select window or what ever you want to place. (You need to have the items built at the carpenter or mason bench)

  6. place the item on top or the front of the slab or where ever you want the item… (Dont close the place item window)

  7. This step is little bit tricky so read this step carefully if you want to succeed
    Sometimes the item disappear or choosing the slabs when you are doing this step so be careful…
    if your item is wooden diamond window and your slab is made of stone it will show both window and stone if you are doing it correctly…
    your items in the stockpile or chest wont disappear if your ghost item do it.
    They will only disappear from the stash when the villager is taking the item to put it on place
    Now for step 7
    click at the corner of your ghost item area (square) 2 - 3 times. (half of a second between the clicks) and click on “build” in the new window that pops up that is called “Building designer - Building no …”

  8. click on the “ghost slabs”

  9. use the eraser and delete the slab or slabs

  10. close the design building window

  11. unpause the game and watch the villagers build what you wanted them to build :smiley:

If they dont build that you want them to.
Do the steps again or there might be a bug or something that has been changed in a future patch that makes it impossible
