# padding

This block is part of the [`styling`](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/styling) group and was last modified in core [`v10.4.28`](https://docs.rual.nl/core-versions/100428).

A shorthand property for all the padding-* properties.

- top required `value` Hidden when unused

- bottom required `value` Hidden when unused

- left required `value` Hidden when unused

- right required `value` Hidden when unused

- uistyle `uistyle`

A typical wiring for [padding](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/styling/uistyle_padding): [value](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/value/value_default) feeds the `top` pin; the `uistyle` out pin feeds [multiple](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/styling/uistyle_multiple).
