Validation Tab

In the Validation tab, you can configure the validation scenarios associated with the particular framework you are editing. These validation scenarios are presented in the Configure Validation Scenarios dialog box when validating a document and you can specify which scenarios will be used by default for a particular document type.

Note:

If a main file is associated with the current file, the validation scenarios defined in the main file, along with any Schematron schema defined in the default scenarios for that particular framework, are used for the validation. These take precedence over other types of validation units defined in the default scenarios for the particular framework. For more information on main files, see Contextual Project Operations Using 'Main Files' Support or Modular Contextual XML Editing Using 'Main Files' Support.

To open the Validation tab of the Document type configuration dialog box, open the Preferences dialog box (Options > Preferences), go to Document Type Association, use the New, Edit, Duplicate, or Extend button, and click on the Validation tab.

The Validation tab offers the following options:

Default checkbox: You can set one or more of the scenarios listed in this tab to be used as the default validation scenario when another specific scenario is not specified in the validation process. The scenarios that are set as default are rendered bold in the Configure Validation Scenarios dialog box.
New: Opens the New scenario dialog box allowing you to create a new validation scenario.
Duplicate: Allows you to duplicate the configuration of an existing validation scenario. It opens the Edit scenario dialog box where you can configure the properties of the duplicated scenario.
Edit: Opens the Edit scenario dialog box allowing you to edit the properties of the currently selected validation scenario.
Delete: Deletes the currently selected validation scenario.
Import scenarios: Imports validation scenarios.
Export selected scenarios: Export validation scenarios.
Move Up: Moves the selected scenario up one spot in the list.
Move Down: Moves the selected scenario down one spot in the list.
