Please Note:  The fact that you just created a Custom Property and enabled it, does not mean that it will automatically be shown to all roles immediately.  This functionality was designed this way.  You must now access the Tools/ Role Permission Sets and select which role(s) should be able to see the Custom Property.  To do so, select the Property Permissions tab, and enable the Property.
