Property Transfer hides Source and Target when ran directly from test step level

For the last few days, I've ran into the issue of the property transfer step hiding the source and target text boxes whenever I run the property transfer step directly from the step itself. However, the step behaves perfectly when it is ran from the test case and test suite level. This issue prevents me from making any changes to text that is in the property transfer step and forces me to restart the application in order to get the property transfer step back to its normal state. If anyone can help me with this issue I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks !
