The context help for this large typedef would be more readable if the nodes were collapsible like the XML viewer for Internet Explorer.

Compound arithmetic allows you to invert inputs or outputs. I find myself often checking for a string or path to NOT be empty. It would be nice to be able to invert the output the "Empty String/Path?" function instead of needing to wire up the additional "Not" function. It would look kind of like this:

Thanks!

It would be a small yet very welcome improvement if the 'size to text' option could be added to the enum and ring options when in arrays rather than having to manually adjust them.

Here we have a combo box vs enum in an array. Both contain identical lists which consist of the following: 

Now if you right click the combo box you get the option to size to text:  Right click the enum and you don't:

Also, when you 'size to text' on the combo box list, it sizes to the item you selected rather than sizing to the longest string as shown here:

Yes you could argue that it did exactly what you asked but my preference, and I'm sure others will agree, that it would be best to size to the longest string. Maybe have two options in the list. 'size to current element' and 'size to longest element'

Compare the upper loop(old) with the lower loop(new).
Take a close look at the loop exit.

Solution: Right click the indexing tunnel and select "Enable Conditional Append"

This works not only with FOR-Loops. 

History: This idea was already presented by me in May 2008 http://lavag.org/topic/7574-conditional-append/page__p__44719&#entry44719 

If there is a "Move Up" and "Move Down" option is available for "Unbundle by Name" and "Bundle by Name", then it would be very helpful.  Then, instead of deleting the removing the items and then inserting the same item in some other row, I will just move it up or down....
