Smalltalk PropertyGrid available?

Hello,
I am looking for a PropertyGrid like it exists in the .NET Framework. Does
a similar component exist in the Smalltalk world? As parcel or third party
product?

If you don't have any idea what I am talking about, follow that link.

Thanks,

We use a DataSet for that. It doesn't have quite as many features (e.g.
no + and - buttons on the left for hiding several rows at a time), and
is rather slow and poorly implemented, but it does the job.

I think at some point the Aragon widget set (in contributed\Aragon)
allowed combining its TreeView with its DataSet, but either I was
imagining things, it was never finished, or it got removed.

And Pollock, the major rewrite of our widgets and gui system, will
replace Dataset with Grid. Pollock is currently shipped in 'preview'
status.

The TreeView still works in the DataSet. Load the parcels
including the example parcel. Open example browser and start
up the NDS file browser. It uses a treeview inside of a dataset.

Ah, of course, this is Smalltalk: don't read the documentation, just
load the code :-). Thanks Terry!
