Why are playbooks only showing as code?

When creating a playbook, the view of individual blocks goes away when adding custom code. Is this expected or some type of glitch? Usually the view can be used to better visualize the workflow, and makes edits easier, so not sure if this is intentional or an issue.

@mbrown1 this is due to you adding custom code when in "full code view" and is an expected, albeit frustrating behaviour. 

If you add custom code to a block context then only the block becomes "detached" from the Playbook editor. You must make sure the block is selected when editing the code. You can undo your custom code edit by reverting your playbook and make sure you select the block before adding your custom code.
