# Type Alias Offset

Offset: number | [PointLike](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/PointLike/) | { \[\_ in [PositionAnchor](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/PositionAnchor/)\]: [PointLike](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/PointLike/) }

A pixel offset specified as:

-   A single number specifying a distance from the location
-   A [PointLike](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/PointLike/) specifying a constant offset
-   An object of [PointLike](https://docs.maptiler.com/sdk-js/api-reference/types/PointLike/)s specifying an offset for each anchor position

Negative offsets indicate left and up.
