Outlines (groups) within outlines

In the attached file, I am grouping by CLIN 0003 and 0004. I want summary rows to show so I put them at the top. So far so good.

But the problem is that the + sign is one row below the summary row. Not literally one row because there are collapsed rows, but I would like to + sign to appear on the same row as the summary row.

The only way to make the + sign appear on the same row as the summary row, is to place the summary row at the bottom of the rows that it pertains to. I don't like the looks of this when each level is expanded. So it seems like there is a trade off.

Is it possible to keep the summary row at the top of the data it is summarizing and also have the + sign appear on the same row?

You can tell XL was designed by accountants, who were used to having totals. Thankfully, this is a easy switch. Go to Data, Outline group, and click on little arrow in bottom right.

Then, uncheck this option

And voila, the summaries now roll-up, not down. :)
