So yall cant just slide it up?

Sliding windows are pretty easy to break into in comparision.

Just crowbaring it open, or when you forgot to lock it, when it was closed. With these windows you would see the window being wide open.

…to be fair, most windows are easy to break into, on account of being glass

That is true. It makes a distinctive noise though. For burglars being quiet allows much more time to look around for valueables, so smashing in glasses is not their first choice.

That is also a good point

can you slide you window open, so it's 100% open, or just like half open?

After having these windows forever, I can agree that I would prefer sliding in some cases. I think a tilting window that can also slide sideways would be endgame.

I had a house that had these. The garden door was tilting and sliding, but not swinging. I would have liked all to be rhis way . Swinging steals the space of the swing.
