It should be possible to:
1. Reorder editor tabs within single tab group using drag and drop.
2. Move editor tab from one tab group to another using drag and drop.

This functionality is implemented in plugin TabReorder.

Note that TabReorder does not (and will not) work with IDEA 8.

Any chance to see tab reorder included natively in IDEA 8?

Most likely it will be included in a 8.x update.

Any progress on this feature? I'd be very grateful for that :-)

BTW, TabReorder now works with IDEA 8.0.X and is released with sources

This is fixed in 9712 and in a nice way I would say.
So you can mark this as fixed.

I would like to thank you for fixing this bug.
This, together with the ability to have the tabs on the right side again, just made IntelliJ a lot more pleasurable to work with.

Thanks again.

I must be blind today but where do you turn it on and how is it fixed?

In 9712, drag & drop works only with "Editor tabs in single row" option. Reopening until D&D works with all tab display modes.

Is it possible to use this "TabReorder" plugin with phpStorm ?

I'm wondering that 35 people have voted for this feature request although there is already a very good solution provided by the open source plugin TabReorder. So I guess some of them did not read the thread and do not know about the plugin. -> Therefore this comment.

This plugin (TabReorder) not available for PHPStorm

They might have voted at the time when TabReorder did not support latest IDEA and looked dead. The situation now is quite good, the plugin works well.

TabReorder does not show up in available plugins list in PyCharm…

I don't see TabReorder in available plugins on IDEA version IU-95.390 either, and without it drag-drop still only works with tabs in a single row. What's the status of each of those?

That's surprising. I can see the plugin under available plugins. I'm using IC-95.413, but the plugin also worked in former versions like 95.260.

It would be nice if a native solution would also allow D&D between groups.

This is not yet completely fixed. Reordeing tabs within a single tab group still has some issues.
