The `margin` rule adds space around the entire widget. Margin may be specified with 1, 2 or 4 values.
| Example | Description |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `margin: 1;` | A single value sets a margin of 1 around all 4 edges |
| `margin: 1 2;` | Two values sets the margin for the top/bottom and left/right edges |
| `margin: 1 2 3 4;` | Four values sets top, right, bottom, and left margins independently |
Margin may also be set individually by setting `margin-top`, `margin-right`, `margin-bottom`, or `margin-left` to a single value.
## Syntax
```
margin: <INTEGER>;
margin: <INTEGER> <INTEGER>;
margin: <INTEGER> <INTEGER> <INTEGER> <INTEGER>;
```
## Example
In this example we add a large margin to some static text.

```python
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/margin.py"
```
=== "margin.css"
```css
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/margin.css"
```
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/margin.py"}
```
## CSS
```sass
/* Set margin of 2 on the top and bottom edges, and 4 on the left and right */
margin: 2 4;
```
## Python
```python
# In Python you can set the margin as a tuple of integers
widget.styles.margin = (2, 3)
```
