Property Value

Type	Default	Description
DefaultBoolean	Default	A DefaultBoolean enumeration value which specifies whether end-users can reorder pages by dragging their headers.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

If the AllowDragDrop property is set to Default or True, an end-user can use drag-and-drop to rearrange tabs. However, in this case, it is not possible to drag-and-drop other objects onto the form’s client region, occupied by the tabs. The form’s drag-and-drop events will not raise, as they are handled and suppressed by the XtraTabbedMdiManager.

If the AllowDragDrop property is set to False, tab drag-and-drop is disabled and the form’s drag-and-drop events are not suppressed.
