I need to make something consisting of movable boxes which snap into
position when arranged in a row, such that you can change the order by
moving them around -- rather like the video clips in Windows Movie Maker.

Is there anything like this predefined in C#?

Michael,

Nope, you will have to implement this yourself, or get a third-party
component that will do it.

Hope this helps.

You could implement the draging of panels contained in a flow layout panel.
You would just need to determine which panel they have been dragged over
(possible with each panels dragover event) and move them up or down the list
of elements.

Alternativley you could use the Ingragistics grid in CardView with row
re-ordering turned on. You can download a thirty day trial but i dont know if
the format of the data will be for you.
