Pivot Table with 3 Row Fields and 1 Column Field

PRECONDITION:
a Pivot Table with 3 Row Fields and 1 Column Field
(see attached Pivot-Spielergebnisse-3Row1Col.ods)
Row Fields from left to right: Datum, Spiel, Name
Column Field: Platzierung
all Fields in default settings, i.e. Tabular layout

PROBLEM DESCRITION:
if the 3rd Row Field "Name" is changed to Compact layout, 
this shall not change anything because at that position the layout is not relevant
but: the 3 Row Field's drop down menus for Datum, Spiel, and Name are replaced by a single drop down menu "Row Labels" valid for the Row Field Datum
there are no more Row Field's drop down menus for Spiel and Name

Same question as in bug 160397: how do you "change a field to compact layout"?

See also bug id 160107 with attached file in Compact Layout (where however the date is shown as a number instead of a calendar date)

attached screen shot to show how I changed to compact layout:
- Data > Pivot Table > Insert or Edit... (dialog Pivot Table Layout)
- double click on Row Field "Name" (dialog Data Field)
- Options... (dialog Data Field Options)
- Display Options Layout: select Compact layout

Pivot-Spielergebnisse-3Row1Col-CompactSpiel3rd

Pivot Table with 3 Row + 1 Col Fields, with Col Field "Spiel" in 3rd position set to Compact (and there shall not change the layout)
--> the Header contains only 1 menu "Row Labels" although the layout shall still be Tabular layout
