Re: hide_marc

It doesn't do what the syspref description says it does.

What it says: Show/Don't show MARC tag numbers, subfield codes and indicators
in MARC views. 

- MARC tag numbers
- MARC subfield codes (these appear in staff only)
- Indicators

What it does: Show/Don't show MARC tag numbers and indicators in MARC views.

- MARC tag numbers
- Indicators

**Subfield codes still show in the MARC view in the staff interface.


Re: advancedMARCeditor

The name of this one is misleading, in my opinion. To me, the 'advanced MARC
editor' is the advanced editor that is available when
EnableAdvancedCatalogingEditor is enabled. This system preference removes the
field/subfield names in the *basic* MARC editor.

I don't really have an opinion as to whether they should be removed or not. All
my clients have them both enabled, and most hide the MARC view in the OPAC, as
it is not very useful to the average patron. But the names and descriptions
should definitely be updated to reflect the actual behaviour.
