How to freeze style panels

Hello! :)

I just changed my Windows and Office version. I now have Windows 11 and the latest version of Word.

I can't find how to dock the Styles pane in the Word window. I read that by default, it's docked and can be moved.
But when I first opened Word and opened the Styles pane, it was "floating". And whenever I move it to the right, left, bottom, or top, it doesn't dock.
And I can't find where to change that. I can't find it in Word's options. I don't know where to go if changes need to be made in Office...

I would appreciate any guidance if you can help me... Thank you! :)

    Hello

    Normally, double-clicking on the title of the floating bar allows it to be anchored automatically.

      Thank you once again, m@rina:

      You are introducing me to a gesture that I was not aware of, even though I have been using Word for decades!!!

      Kisses.

    The solution to my problem came to me out of nowhere: in my document, I needed to search for a word, so I pressed Ctrl F, the Navigation pane opened, and in the Word window, it was "frozen," and next to it, the Styles pane was automatically frozen as well!

    Inexplicable, but solved... :)

    What's happening? I just added a comment to Marina's response; it's not showing up! Yet when I check the discussion, my name and the time of my entry appear as the "last response"!
