Walking outside to add sheet to window

[jolan]

When I'm inside a house and I want to add sheet to some window , I walk outside, open doors on my way and add the sheet to the window from the garden.

If the bugged window is on the first floor then nothing happens at all, I suppose because I can't reach the window from outside.

Observed with 2.9.9.16 / MacOS 10.8

Seen this, too, it happens mostly in kitchens when you can't reach the window because something's in the way.

maybe it's the reason but one should be allowed to put a sheet on a window which is behind a small drawer.

Yeah, seen this - usually when the window in question is in front of / behind something else (chair, cabinet).  My guess is that the AI pathing incorrectly assumes going outside is actually the shorter route, due to some combination of "obstacles".

I just tested this bug again and it is not related to things in front of the window :

You can add sheet to a window behind a kitchen drawer and you may auto walk outside when there is nothing to block you.

I'm beginning to think the bug is simply related to the way the window is added to the map.

Is there anything in the way? Like a chair or drawers?
