Maya: docking Outliner window

It has been bothering me that Outliner window is free floating, it seems that I could never find a place for it. Since I work on the large external monitor, having it docked inside main Maya window works well for me.

To do this you need to execute this script:

OutlinerWindow; dockControl -area "left"-content outlinerPanel1-label "outliner"-allowedArea "left"-allowedArea "right"-width 250;deleteUI "outlinerPanel1Window" ;
To run this script you open:
(Maya) Window > General Editors > Script Editor


Copy and paste the script and press PLAY (triangle) and that is all.

Here how it looks
