Definition and Usage

The inset-block-end property sets the distance between the end of an element and the parent element in the block direction.

Note: For this property to take effect it has to have the position property specified.

The CSS inset-inline and inset-block properties are very similar to CSS properties top, bottom, left and right, but the inset-block and inset-inline properties are dependent on block and line directions.

Note: The related CSS property writing-mode defines block direction. This affects where the start and end of a block is and the result of the inset-block-end property. For pages in English, block direction is downward and inline direction is left to right.
