If there is a – in front of the Group Name, it indicates that the group has been “expanded” and all of the User Names within that group are displayed below the Group Name. If there is a + in front of the Group Name, it indicates that the group has been “collapsed” and all of the User Names within that group are hidden. To collapse or expand a group, highlight the +/- column in front of the desired group and press the button.
