Nested In Place Structure Chain

Status: New

I love the In Place Structure.  But when I use it to access the bottom level data of a fairly nested data structure, nesting five In Place Structures seems like too much work.

 It would be great if one In Place Structure could be used to do the work that these five are doing.  I'm sure there's much better ways of doing this, but it could look something like this.

I may be way out on a limb here; would this be useful to anyone else?

Agree with the comment above, there needs to be a better way of doing this....

*Interesting that the VI Snippet breaks this VI, but it's fine in LabVIEW before and after.....

Richard: The VI Snippet breaks because the class is undefined in the snippet. If you paste the snippet on a machine that does not have those classes, you'll get the kinds of breaks shown in the picture.

(I'm not sure if that's the way the feature works for some desirable reason (i.e. showing that this snippet will generally drop broken) or if it just works out that way and we could clean up the image more.)
