# Dock
The `dock` property is used to fix a widget to the edge of a container (which may be the entire terminal window).
## Syntax
```
dock: bottom | left | right | top;
```
The option chosen determines the edge to which the widget is docked.
## Examples
The example below shows a `left` docked sidebar.
Notice that even though the content is scrolled, the sidebar remains fixed.
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/guide/layout/dock_layout1_sidebar.py" press="pagedown,down,down,_,_,_,_,_"}
```
=== "dock_layout1_sidebar.py"
```python
--8<-- "docs/examples/guide/layout/dock_layout1_sidebar.py"
```
=== "dock_layout1_sidebar.css"
```sass hl_lines="2"
--8<-- "docs/examples/guide/layout/dock_layout1_sidebar.css"
```
The second example shows how one can use full-width or full-height containers to dock labels to the edges of a larger container.
The labels will remain in that position (docked) even if the container they are in scrolls horizontally and/or vertically.
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/dock_all.py"}
```
=== "dock_all.py"
```py
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/dock_all.py"
```
=== "dock_all.css"
```css hl_lines="2-5 8-11 14-17 20-23"
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/dock_all.css"
```
## CSS
```sass
dock: bottom; /* Docks on the bottom edge of the parent container. */
dock: left; /* Docks on the left edge of the parent container. */
dock: right; /* Docks on the right edge of the parent container. */
dock: top; /* Docks on the top edge of the parent container. */
```
## Python
```python
widget.styles.dock = bottom; # Dock bottom.
widget.styles.dock = left; # Dock left.
widget.styles.dock = right; # Dock right.
widget.styles.dock = top; # Dock top.
```
