Add ability to uncheck or remove attributes from existing transfer

Transfers are initially added by searching and then selecting elements then attributes to add. When we want to edit the transfer, we are only able to remove entire elements, not by attributes. This became an issue when we later found that we had a...

Support of Event Frame Annotations
