Eto forms with TypeConverter

Rhino Developer

I have a class which has a property ParentGuid:

class Component:
{
/// ...........................
/// other implementations
/// ...........................


        [TypeConverter(typeof(GuidConverter))]
        public Guid ParentGuid
        {
            get { return GetParentGuid(RhinoObject); }
            set
            {
                SetParentGuid(RhinoObject, value);
                NotifyPropertyChanged();
            }
        }
}

In the UI I defined a Eto.Forms.PropertyGrid

        private PropertyGrid GeneratePropertyGridView()
        {
            var propertylayout = new PropertyGrid();
            propertylayout.SelectedObjects = MyComponentInstance;
            propertylayout.ShowCategories = false;
            propertylayout.ShowDescription = false;
            return propertylayout;
        }

But with or without TypeConverter, In the property grid doesn’t display the ParentGuid value.

By debugging I found the TypeConverter isn’t even accessed.

Is there any step missing? I could not find any documentation about PropertyGrid or TypeConverter of Eto.Forms. Would be great if you could provide a solution with example.

Thanks in advance!
