Glass Pane
minecraft:glass_paneGlass Pane is a thin, transparent building block crafted from glass, designed to fit snugly against adjacent blocks and other panes without the bulk of a full glass block. It can be waterlogged, allowing it to sit inside water without displacing it.

- Cartography Table Map Locking — Used in a cartography table to lock a map, preventing further zoom-out.
- Villager Trading — Cartographer villagers buy glass panes, trading 11 panes for 1 emerald.

FAQ
What tool do I need to mine Glass Pane?
None required — any tool or bare hands breaks it instantly, but Silk Touch is needed to recover the pane itself.
What happens if I break Glass Pane without Silk Touch?
It shatters and drops nothing, just like regular glass.
Why use Glass Panes instead of Glass blocks?
They use less material (six glass makes sixteen panes), look thinner, and connect visually to neighboring blocks and panes for tidier builds.
Can Glass Panes be waterlogged?
Yes. They can hold a water source inside them, letting players build underwater window walls that still let water flow through gaps.
