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.
Simlogical managed to make Sims 2 curtains that opened and closed. However, I wish they would make it an official feature in Sims 4 (or if it is too late, Sims 5!) It would also be nice if they made official windows that opened and closed. I would also like to see glass sliding doors, and wooden pocket doors.

Say its a blisteringly hot day and your Sims want to stay cooler-- they could close the curtains to let in less sunlight/heat.

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 already have seasons, but there is no sign. Although it would be a very good feature, because my sim is a celebrity, and if there are paparazzies outside, it would make sense to close the curtains. Maybe there is a mod that I have not found? Because I have looked everywhere.
