Is L3 Etherchannel possible in Packet Tracer?

Can anybody tell me if Layer 3 Etherchannel is at all possible on the 3560 multi-layer switch in Packet Tracer?

It does not accept the "no switchport" command, to set it to Layer 3 mode.

Heres the output I get:
Switch(config)#int port-channel 1
Switch(config-if)#no switchport
% Incomplete command.
Switch(config-if)#no switchport ?

There does not seem to be the capability to set an ip address for the port-channel interface at all.

Am I missing something simple here or is this simply not supported in Packet Tracer?
