Hi Ahmet,

Thank you for writing.

Please note that when you set the "Enable Column Reordering" to false at design-time, a false value is serialized in the designer for the AllowColumnReorder property. So, even if you set the AllowColumnReoder to true in the constructor of your extended RadGridView class, your true value will be overridden by the false value serialized in the designer. Your only option to override what is serialized in the designer is to override the EndInit method in your extended RadGridView class:

public class MyGrid : RadGridView
{
    public override void EndInit()
    {
        base.EndInit();

        this.AllowColumnReorder = true;
    }
}

I hope this helps. All the best,
