'''Glass Panes''' are transparent blocks which can be used as an alternative to [[Glass]]. Glass panes were released in 1.8. Prior to 1.9 Prerelease 2 when destroyed you could pick it up again.<ref>http://www.twitvid.com/RQ2RZ<small>(about 1:45 min)</small></ref> Their placement behavior is similar to [[Redstone]], [[Iron Bars]], and [[Fences]]. They have the same texture as Glass. They cannot currently be placed horizontally. Glass panes are present in buildings of villages. When placed without anything on the sides of it it will appear in the shape of an ┼ but when something is placed on the sides of it it will become flat or into a ┌ shape or a ┬ shape depending on the items surrounding it.

* Only 6 glass blocks are required to make 16 glass panes, meaning a 166% increase in materials.
 
* Because of its shape can be used to displace water and players/mobs can stand inside it.
 
* Appears somewhat brighter than glass blocks.

* Glass Panes will not attach to many [[opacity|transparent]] blocks, namely [[stone slab]]s, [[piston]]s, [[sticky piston]]s, [[Farmland]], [[Iron Bars]], [[Doors]], and [[Fences]].
 
 
==Trivia==
 
* A 2x2 area made of glass panes can make a hole big enough for the player to fit through in the middle, but not rain, water, etc. this can be used as an easy entrance for an underwater house, but not an exit. [[Iron Bars]] work in the same manner.
 
* Be careful where you plant Saplings, when a tree grows if a Glass Pane is in the way it will be removed.
 
* Glass Panes are much brighter than Glass Blocks, thus making them more suitable than Glass Blocks for high-visibility structures.
 
* If two glass panes are placed with one empty space in between, a [[Spider]] (which is 2 blocks wide) can still fit through.
 
* Before 1.9 Pre-release 2, glass panes were able to be picked up when broken.

Block jumping is similar to pillaring, which is an easy way of travelling upwards. By block jumping, the Player can easily reach very high places by jumping and placing a block underneath the player's feet while airborne.

Block jumping is a form of "cheat" movement used as pillaring on multiplayer mode in areas the player cannot build in. On most servers there are protected areas in which the player cannot build or destroy. However, you can still reach high places in these areas by placing a block under you and quickly jumping off it again before it disappears. This can be repeated as long as the ping is high enough. A better way of block jumping that even works on servers with a very low ping is to jump next to a wall and place a block on the wall. By quickly jumping and placing blocks one after another in front of the player, he/she will be able to bypass the build protection used in servers. Using this way, the block you are going to place is not contingent on the previously placed block.

Most servers run anti-cheat plugins and most of these will detect block jumping as flying and will kick the player from the server or report the player to an admin. It is also not allowed on most servers and is referred to as an exploit to most people.
