Ayup, ML specifically documents the limitation of not being able to reference subindices of fields for more than a single field index expression. A significant limitation, agreed...
If you have to stick w/ the structure and need the above, you'll have to either use a loop and retrieve each structure array component one at a time or do the full concatenation as above and then select the row/column desired (your above example says 'row' but is actually the first column as written).
v = [fData.val]; v=v(1,:); % first row
Superficially doesn't seem as though there's a problem in the indexing other than similar to cells so don't know why there's not a generalized form available--perhaps it's in the development stage still...
