Description

Possible alternate to "Fan" display. The "Fan" display is challenging because of rotated text and a limit to the number of people that can fit on a single page.

This alternative would use flat text and depending on font size could fit a large # of people.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Fan display implementation and how its layout is selected. The issue provides only a visual example, so clarify the desired flat-text layout, font-size behavior, and fitting limits before changing code; done means an alternative display can show more people without rotated text.
