Problems with an aggregate field not displaying in the list of available fields within a custom view of an object?

    I have an object that has a sub object underneath it.  I have created an aggregated field in the master object that sums the value of a field in the sub-object.

     

    I also have created a new view within the Master object.  The new aggregated field does not appear in the list of fields to bring it into the view.  I can force this to happen by ticking the aggregated field as 'Presence Required' and it will appear in the first section of the view.  Ideally though I would like it to be behave like any other field in case this causes issues when I go live with it.

     

    Just wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this.  Realise that it is quite specific.
