Open/close curtains

That would be so cool! I've been wanting that as well, especially in the kids' bedroom. I want them to be able to close the curtains at night, so they can sleep. But open them during the day so they can play in their room whilst sunlight comes in.

I would like this too.

I second this idea! (I was going to suggest it myself but made sure to search first and found this thread).
With the new Seasons expansion coming out, it would make even more sense. Say its a blisteringly hot day and your Sims want to stay cooler-- they could close the curtains to let in less sunlight/heat. Or if your Sims want more privacy it would be nice to go from closed to open.
Blinds and shades that open and close would also be a nice idea.
It would also be good for vampire Sims. They could close their curtains during the day and open them at night.
There could even be different types of curtains
*Blackout curtains that completely block the light when they are closed
*Regular curtains that maybe allow in about 20 to 30% of the light when closed
*Translucent / Diaphanous curtains that allow about 80 to 90% of the light in but afford some privacy.
Perhaps there could even be a shade or center curtain that lets in more light but obscures view from prying eyes.

I almost forgot to mention there could be shutters on the outside that can open and close. So, say there is a big storm expected (again with Seasons) and Sims want to close their shutters to protect the windows a bit more.
Another suggestion is something that would be listed as a curtain but it would be more of a film/overlay on windows. It would allow for frosted, bubbled, & textured windows for bathrooms & more private spaces.

I'd love it if they coud do thid, even if the interaction for it is similar to turn on/off the lights. I'd also really like it if we could open or close the windows

I agree with this idea 100%

I appreciate it might be tricky to animate, but ever since curtains appeared in sims 2 I've wanted to option to open and close them, as in have a sim manually do it - it looks weird if they're open at night and closed during the day and I'll be plummed if I'm gonna change the curtain style every 12 sim hrs - it could be included in a living room stuff pack, budget allowing.

IIRC, there was a mod creator for TS2 who created curtains that opened in the morning and closed at night.

If modders could do that over a decade ago, it would be really nice for EA to take a crack at it. I really wish that instead of just speaking to game changers, EA would also speak to those in the mod community. They've got some serious tricks up their sleeves, no lie.

If we could get curtains sized for all windows at first, it would already be wonderful.

Mmm-hmmm!

A working ceiling fan would be great too.

Honestly, I don't think this would have to be complicated, just all curtains with two options: open and closed.

We've already got some curtains that have open and closed versions. They would have been better as a single curtain with the option to click on them, and set them as open or closed.

This would be one of those nice little details. Totally support this idea.

This sounds like a fab idea and I am behind it all the way!
