A window is an item of furniture that can be constructed to form solid walls surrounding a room. A window is not considered support for the purposes of preventing cave-ins, but it will block the flow of water. Glass windows can be made with any type of glass at a glass furnace, and are placed similarly to furniture. Like all furniture, windows must have a floor underneath them to be built. Alternatively, a gem window can be directly constructed from three cut gems of any type (including cut glass). If the gems used to make a gem window are of different colors, the window will flash between the different colors of the gems. As of version 27.176.38c, magma does not melt constructed windows, no matter what they are made of, but unconstructed glass windows will melt in magma.
It is not known how dwarves use windows, but it is known that dwarves will get a happy thought from windows built of a material they like.
Light from a window built into a cliff face will not illuminate a room and will not prevent cave adaptation.
Note that dwarves can see through windows, and will run away from creatures standing on the other side of the window.
A noble may request a window, no matter how far underground his rooms are.
