How to Move Tabs Using Drag and Drop

Set the RadTabControl's property AllowDragReorder to True or False to allow/disallow the user to reorder the tab items of your tab control using Drag & Drop.

XAML

	<telerik:RadTabControl x:Name="radTabControl" AllowDragReorder="True">
	    <telerik:RadTabItem Header="Calendar"/>
	    <telerik:RadTabItem Header="Colors"/>
	    <telerik:RadTabItem Header="Quote"/>
	    <telerik:RadTabItem Header="Web Sites"/>
	</telerik:RadTabControl>

The same behavior can be enabled/disabled in the code-behind.

C#

	private void EnableReordering()
	{
	    radTabControl.AllowDragReorder = true;
	}

VB.NET

    Private Sub EnableReordering()
        radTabControl.AllowDragReorder = True
    End Sub
