Drag & Drop Behavior
With the Telerik ListBox control you can expand your web-application capabilities through the rich drag & drop functionality. You can easily perform the following drag and drop operations:
- Drag and drop to reorder items within the same listbox
- Drag and drop to transfer items from one listbox to another
- Drag and drop items on any HTML element, textboxes, buttons and even Datagrids
- Auto-Scroll on Drag - When dragging an item to a part of the ListBox which is hidden, the control will scroll up/down to that part automatically.

Items Reordering

RadListBox allows you reorder items both through drag and drop or using the up and down buttons. The reorder buttons can be added to either side of the ListBox and are fully stylable. Moving/Reordering are done on the client and changes are persisted on the server.

Items Transfer

RadListBox supports items transferring via the transfer buttons, mouse double click and drag and drop. It allows you to transfer single, multiple or all items between listboxes or other controls.
