TabFormControlBase.AllowMoveTabs Property

Gets or sets whether pages can be moved in and out of the form using drag-and-drop operations.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

#Declaration

[DefaultValue(true)]
public bool AllowMoveTabs { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean true

true if pages can be moved in and out of the form using drag-and-drop operations; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

By default, end-users are allowed to rearrange page tabs in the TabForm using drag-and-drop operations, and can move a particular page tab out of the TabForm to display the page in a separate TabForm. Set the AllowMoveTabs property to false to prohibit rearranging the pages within the TabForm, and moving them out of the TabForm.

You can also only prevent pages from being moved out of the TabForm by setting the TabFormControlBase.AllowMoveTabsToOuterForm property to false.

The TabFormControl.Transition settings allow you to customize or totally disable animation effects that are used by default when an end-user rearranges tabs.
