[LabVIEW CAR] Find... doesn't find Property Nodes of Cluster elements

If you have a cluster on the FP and create a PN for one of its element as shown here:

the Find right-click submenu doesn't allow to find that PN:

I could post that in the IE, but I would qualify this as a bug.

 

Tested in LV 2015.0f2 (64 bits) on Windows 7

Why do you consider this a bug?

 

The cluster doesn't have any property nodes.

 

If you right click on the boolean control inside the cluster, it does have a property node and you can find it with a Right click Find Property Node.

Yeah I agree, not a bug.  Maybe a feature request cause I can see why you might want to be able to find references or property nodes of controls contained in the cluster.

I was illustrating an action performed on the BD, where the cluster element doesn't have a terminal. Only the cluster does.

In other words, I cannot access an element's PN from the BD, requiring me to go to the FP (and find the cluster there, which might involve messing up my FP), pick up ONE element and Search for its PN from there.

I'll post this as a  feature suggestion.

Of course an alternate method (workaround?) would be to place a reference to the cluster element on the BD and right-click to locate PNs.
