Yes i have tried R1 and L1 but this does nothing. tried pressing before selecting a window and after selecting a window but again this does nothing.
Okay, are you stuck in room placement mode? Are you unable to switch back to single placement?

No the opposite, stuck in single placement. restarting doesn't do anything either.
Okay! This could be an issue with how your walls are placed or where your roof is, if you have one. Try cycling through no walls, half walls and full walls while placing the windows, then R1 and L1 to switch between single and room placement. You could also try just building a square room an seeing if it will let you use room placement on that. If the game's not letting you switch at all, I'm not sure what is wrong, but I know there was an update released that fixed some of the issues in build mode, so you could make sure you've installed it.
- Anonymous8 years agoI have tried why you have said and nothing, still doesn't work and my game is updated with the latest patch.
Okay...I've given you all the advice I can think of. I'm not sure what is wrong, but I hope it's fixed in the next patch. I wonder if my game is doing this too...I haven't tried using room placement yet. Sorry I couldn't help you more! 🤨
- Anonymous8 years agoThe last thing I can think of is re installing my game if that doesnt work then it may be a patch job. Thanks all the same 🙂
You're welcome! I hope that works for you 🙂
- Anonymous8 years agoJust re installed the game and without the patch i can switch window placement modes but with the patch I can't. Defiantly a bug that needs to be fixed.
Well that's a little strange! Thank you for telling me 🙂
- Anonymous8 years agoHopefully they fix it soon as it's a little annoying.
- Anonymous8 years agoThe toggle full room and I tile option doesn’t apply to windows for me. Only paint and flooring, but windows by room aren’t an option. I know it’s possible, I’ve played on pc and achieved it, but it’s not working here.

Hi @lankyboy33, @MEEKKOTO, @GHosTsxGurL,
All of you seem to be experiencing the same problem to toggle between single and full room windows. This is something I have forwarded to the team so they can investigate it, so thank you for your reports! In the meantime, I've merged your posts in here so the information is in the same place.
Thanks again!

Hi @lankyboy33,
Just wanted to say thanks for keeping us updated on the situation.
In case you are interested to know what changed with the update, I'd recommend taking a look to the patch notes you can find here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Consoles/The-Sims-4-Patch-notes-on-console-Feb-6th/td-p/6621273
-Mai - Anonymous8 years ago...y’all have dropped quite a few patches and haven’t fixed this yet.
- Anonymous8 years agoThe issue has been corrected as of patch 1.05 for PS4 unsure about Xbox As I don't own one.

I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.
If you have any issues with Sims 4 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.

I know this was years ago but if anyone still is confused I just figured out mine by doing exactly what it is told above but make sure when you press Windows that you change it from “By Room” to “By Window” when choosing the type of window u want. Then it’ll let you use the cheat properly. I had it by room which conflicted the free object movement.
