Groupings - Edit Text Field

Does anyone know how to get back the functionality that was apparently removed to edit the text field so that the report doesn't show the "field:"  I used to this all the time and now it doesn't work.  When the report runs, the grouping is not as clean as it used to be.  Is there a new way to accomplish this?

I am seeing that it still works, but is a little finicky, so if you're experiencing this, I'd say just be very patient and go through all your steps. 

 

Mainly I am finding that it isn't really saving the edits I make so I try and click out of the window, and then click on apply, and then maybe I refresh the screen to make sure that the edit is still there... it's a process. It's been this way ever since they introduced a "done" button in the groupings area a month or two ago, and then removed the button shortly after.

 

It feels like somehow, something in the system is still expecting you to click "done".

 

You're certainly welcome to post your code if you feel there might be something wrong with it, as well.

Thank you for your reply, much appreciated!  The way I normally would do it was to add group.0.name= and then remove any text field with the word "name" in it.  It used to work perfectly but I've done it several times and it's no longer working.  So I thought maybe the way in which it's done has changed.  If my way is wrong, please feel free to enlighten me!  I'll try what you suggested and let you know if it works.  I would be so happy if it did!
