I've seen that mobs can be trapped within glass pane fairly easily, and would love to make a nice green house with a glass roof to let sunlight in during the day. But I can't seem to cajole my glass pane to take any shape other than the T-intersection shape that allows me and mobs to walk in through the roof.

Am I stuck using glass blocks, or is there a way to create the glass roof I desire?

You cannot, glass panes are only vertical.

You're gonna have to use regular glass blocks unfortunately.

    @Zibbobz normally what i see the glass walls are 2 blocks high, to save on glass panes rather than doing a 3x3 box they make a 2x2 box because when the glass panes join they create a small space in the middle

You need to use glass blocks. Sorry!

To keep mobs in just make 2-block high wall.

Unfortunately as the other answers say, this isn't possible in vanilla Minecraft. But you can install a mod to achieve this.

  • Hi @THE_WOLF344, is this the same mod mentioned in one of the existing answers already? gaming.stackexchange.com/a/350611/217524 If so, you can just upvote that one instead of writing another answer.
