Do any Visual Studio-style components exist? (eg. like the properties box)

Are there any components that function like the Visual Studio properties box? I'm designing an editor and this type of component would work great.

Also, do any other "Visual Studio style" components exist? (eg. like the toolbox, etc)

Thanks for any help!

Yes, the PropertyGrid control is exactly the same.

PropertyGrid control might be what you're looking for. It can be found from Visual Studio toolbox (just drag it of form). Check the documentation here.

I haven't seen any toolbox like control, so it might be that you have to implement that yourself.

I believe theWindows Form Designer forum is better place to discuss your problem.
