Contour's user interface is very fluid and allows you to move an Item around simply by selecting it and then dragging and dropping it into the new location.  This is useful for reorganizing the hierarchy of Items within the Explorer View.  Also, this is useful within the Releases View for reprioritizing Items between releases.

Rules for Moving Items

The Items may only be moved within Sets created from the same Item Type.
You must have Write Access to move Items within a Set.
When moving Items between Sets you must have Write Access to both Sets.
Folders have the same rules as Items except when a Folder is moved all of the Items within it are moved as well.
Items can also be dragged from the right panel to the left panel. For example it is possible to drag items in a grid to a Release. This action will change the Release on the item being dragged.
