The only workaround I've figured out is to group them. When you group things, the system tallies the grouped items together and puts a total in the bottom right corner. Not exactly what you're looking for, but maybe could work until you figure out the text mode.
@Sarah Nau‚ Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed. I didn't realize I needed both total and count. I spent over a week trying to get the correct terminology from Workfront and still haven't received assistance so this is really helpful.
