I say no. The glass is not within the tub wall/the floor or stand surface of the tub. The bottom edge of window may also be more than 60" from the floor or stand surface. I can’t tell from here. ---

I doubt that bottom edge is 60 inches ( would wildly guess 40-50) ---

Nope. The glass is not within the bathtub zone. ---

I thought the 60" measurement was pretty obvious from the pic. If you look close you can see the floor baseboard. Apparently not ;-). Regardless, it was well below 5’. ---

No, not by code. BTW, unless that’s a vinyl / colored trim, that’s not a great idea to have wood trim in shower, nor am I much of a fan of the stickum tub/shower surrounds. ---
