Display Group Role in a Group Block
If many Names share the same Role, it gets harder to visually connect them to the Role. Consider the 6 Production Assistants below. Is it immediately obvious to the eye that Rachelle Villalobos is a Production Assistant?
In cases like this, it's common to split out a GROUP Block out of the larger CAST+CREW block. However, there's a problem when we do this:
We've lost the Role we had in place before, Production Assistants. This is because a GROUPT block is normally just that, a group of Names.
Here's how to always show the Role (if any) in a GROUP Block:
The Role comes from the first credit in the block, cell B59 of the Google Doc in this case. No Role will appear above the GROUP block if you leave this cell blank.
Note that visually, any Role above will always be confined to a single line, even if you enter line breaks into the cell.
This control can be found under Global Layout Options, and is enabled by default for new Endcrawl projects:
