# Objective
There are times where we want to simply take an owned `dyn Reflect` and cast it to a type `T`.
Currently, this involves doing:
```rust
let value = value.take::<T>().unwrap_or_else(|value| {
T::from_reflect(&*value).unwrap_or_else(|| {
panic!(
"expected value of type {} to convert to type {}.",
value.type_name(),
std::any::type_name::<T>()
)
})
});
```
This is a common operation that could be easily be simplified.
## Solution
Add the `FromReflect::take_from_reflect` method. This first tries to `take` the value, calling `from_reflect` iff that fails.
```rust
let value = T::take_from_reflect(value).unwrap_or_else(|value| {
panic!(
"expected value of type {} to convert to type {}.",
value.type_name(),
std::any::type_name::<T>()
)
});
```
Based on suggestion from @soqb on [Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1002362493634629796/1041046880316043374).
