C# PropertyGrid limitations

J

Dear Friends,

I have been assigned to develop a Custom PropertyGrid with look and fill
like the link below
http://www.visualhint.com/feature5.php

In the PropertyGrid value cells, I am assigned to display the controls
like NumericUpDown, RadioButtons, CheckBox, ListBox etc I read several
articles and gathered the following informations I request you to comment
on the below points(point 1 to point 3)

1 It is not possible to host a control in the value area of the
PropertyGrid It is however possible to draw the control in that area if we
have the correct UITypeEditor

2 The thumbnail of images can be displayed next to image data in the
property grid (Displaying control in the complete cell area is not
possible[Actually I wanted to display NumericUPDown control in the cell])


3 There is no "official/documented" way to customize that error box.
PropertyGrid component displays the error in its own dialog

Information Required:

4 Considering the above facts, I wanted to go for some third party tool
which gives the similar facilities and can be used as a control component
in the project that is using C#  as development environment But I
did not get any All the components are written using MFC unmanaged code I
want the component, written in managed environment, so that I can use it
in C# development environment with ease I request you to share the
information in this regard, if you know any such components

Thanks in advance

Regards,

Jay
