Is it possible to create and use buses whose elements are single bits in Matlab 8.6 ( 2015b)?

Hi everyone, I am inheriting a .h where I find data to use as inputs to my stateflow chart. As I am reading Bus, I am representing them by the Bus Editor, but one element is a bit of a uint8 variable.

typedef struct {

uint8 Level_Index:5;

} SF_DATA_TYPE;

How can I define this field so that I can read only that bit?

I have read a similar question done in the past for older versions. I would like to know if something new has been added to do this.

Thank you for your help!

Create a mask with only that is True. Then do a Bit-wise AND. It "filters" out the other bits.
