Shared Variable does not update when typedef is changed

[BillMe]

I have a shared variable of type custom control (typedef made up of a cluster). When I chang the typedef, e.g. the name or type of one of the fields in the cluster, and then save it, the shared variable does not update to reflect this change. That is, if I place the shared variable on my block diagram and do a "UNBUNDLE BY NAME" on the output, I see the old fields. I have to go back to the properties of the shared variable, change its data type, apply it, then go back and change it back to my custom control.

Anyone else seen this behaviour? Anyone know how to get the shared variable to update without going through this procedure?

I guess I should have included this information:

LabVIEW 8.2.1 using Project Explorer.

I've seen something similar in a 8.0.1 project, so it's not new. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any better workaround.

I submitted a Product Suggestion on this.
