Genie: Specifying the number of Items to appear on the Catalog (or OPAC) Full Display page

This is rather basic, but I see lots of questions about it.

Out-of-the-box, the Catalog Full Display page will show 100 Items records in the Item Information section. To change this value, use the MaxItems= parameter on the CatalogFull (and/or OpacFull) report in MyReports.config. For example:

<!-- CatalogFullReport -->
<inmg:Report Name="CatalogFull" ShowItemInfo="true" ShowBorrowerInfo="true" ShowReserves="true" ShowEditReserveLink="true" ShowEditItemLink="true" MaxItems="10">
<Field Name="CatTitle" Header="&lt;b&gt;" Footer="&lt;/b&gt;" Separator="&lt;br&gt;"/>
<Field Name="CatSubtitle" Separator="&lt;br&gt;"/>
...

Note: Remember to click Reset on the About Genie window after making this change.
