If there is an something the other side of the window, then it obstructs the view not the window, since it is still possible to see through the window to the obstruction. optilang Joined on Tue, May 13 2008 Poland Senior Member 2,521 OptiNative British English Speaker Wherever I may roam, I'm still a Londoner.
