Is there a way to apply a particular Schematron file to the topic editing window but not full-book validation?

We've implemented many of our internal "style guide" writing suggestions in Schematron. These suggestions pertain to aspects of writing such as avoiding first-person, passive voice, contractions, and nonstandard abbreviations.

But when we apply the "Automatic validation" checkbox for this file, it also gets applied during full-bookmap validation performed from the DITA Maps Manager, which creates quite a volume of writing suggestions for the entire book!

(And we do have another Schematron file with element-structure checks that *should* be included in full-bookmap validation.)

Is there a way to do this?

Thinking about this more, I think I would need the current property:

• Automatic validation (editor/batch)

split into two properties:

• Automatic validation (editor)
• Automatic validation (batch)

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the suggestion, I added an internal issue with ID EXM-45046 for it.
For now I do not have a good workaround for you.
