It looks as though the new Property Grid no longer supports ICustomTypeDescriptor.  Our data models are driven based on this architecture.  Any idea on a way to work around this?

Hi Darrick,

In the old PropertyGrid we used to have a TypeDescriptorFactory and a TypeReflectionFactory. In the new PropertyGrid, we are effectively using a slightly revised version of TypeDescriptorFactory only since it's more powerful than TypeReflectionFactory. Thus I would expect your ICustomTypeDescriptor to work.

Did you try this out yet and run into problems or were you just asking ahead of time?
