You need to decorate it with [TypeConverter(typeof(ExpandableObjectConverter))] to get the sub-properties to show up in the editor.

public struct MyStruct
{
    public int One;
    public int Two;
    public int Three;
}

public class MyEditableClass : Control
{
    [TypeConverter(typeof(ExpandableObjectConverter))]
    public MyStruct MyProperty { get; set; } = new MyStruct();
}

The properties will now be expandable.
