Detect Magic will not tell you a Rope Trick is functioning in the area, nor will it show you an invisible window. What it will do is:1st Round: Tell you there is a magical aura present in the room.2nd Round: Tell you how many auras are present. It will also tell you the strength of the Rope Trick aura, but only if Rope Trick is the most powerful magic aura in the room.3rd Round: If the Rope Trick is the most potent magical effect in the area of effect (and that possibly includes the NPC's gear) then it will tell the caster there is a Faint Transmutation aura in the room.And that's it. No invisible window, no non-dimensional space, nothing else; it won't even tell you if it's Arcane or Divine. But that does not mean that a wizard couldn't think: "Hmmm, a 0 to 3rd level Transmutation spell. I know they were in here... *spellcraft check* ... it might be Rope Trick since no other 0 to 3rd level spells would make sense. I'll just cast See Invisibility and find out if that invisible window is actually there."... *whew* ...:embarassed/regretful smile at PC:</blockquote>
