IPE Structures and anonymous cluster elements

Ran into this today:

Since the IPE unbundle nodes work by name, they aren't happy with anonymous types. Bummer. Not a big deal, but it would be nice to be able to operate on unnamed types...

Oh yes, of course it's expected. I just don't like how since I have an anonymous cluster I can't use the IPE to operate on it.

Doesn't affect my code at all, just annoyed. Makes for messy code since I need to unbundle a whole cluster to operate on a single value. And no, I don't have control over the incoming cluster, so making the type named won't work. I could typecast it to a named one, but meh it's not that big of a deal...

:lightbulb:Seems like a perfect item for the Idea Exchange.

I don't see how that would work. If it is not named you have no way of specifying the element you want to unbundle. But it will work for clusters that are partially anonymous.

Or you could do this

This is not specific to the inplace element structure. There is no way to unbundle a single element of a cluster unless it has a name anywhere in LabVIEW.
