Property Value

Type	Default	Description
DefaultBoolean	Default	A DefaultBoolean value that specifies if a page is made floating on dragging its tab outside the tab header region.

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 this option is enabled, a page can be dragged away from the XtraTabbedMdiManager, and then restored. When the page is dragged away, it’s made floating.

The DefaultBoolean.Default value assigned to the FloatOnDrag property is interpreted as DefaultBoolean.False

You can use the XtraTabbedMdiManager.FloatPageDragMode property to specify how a page should be displayed while it’s being dragged away from the XtraTabbedMdiManager.
