CSS inset-inline-end Property
The inset-inline-end property in CSS is known for defining the logical inline end inset of an element, which gets mapped to the physical offset on the basis of the writing mode, text orientation, and directionality of the element.
This property is a shorthand property for the CSS properties like- inset-inline-end and inset-inline-start properties and the shorthand for these properties is inline-inset. This property takes up the same values as the left property.
Syntax
inset-inline-end: ength|percentage|auto|inherit|initial|unset;
Example 1: CSS inset-inline-end Property
Here in the example below, we are using the inset-inline-end property to position our text inside the container according to the values specified. Here, we have given the inset-inline-end value as 20px. This value acts as the margin for our text to get placed inside the container. Since this is the inset-inline-end property, the text gets positioned 20px halfway outside the box.

Example 2: CSS inset-inline-end Property
Here in this second example, we have given the inset-inline-end property value as auto. This auto value means the default value of this property by which the text gets positioned at the starting position of the container block.

Conclusion
This property is applicable to the positioned elements. It is not an inherited property. The percentage value refers to the logical width of the containing block. The computed value for this property is the same as box offsets like top, left, right and bottom properties, only the directions are logical.
