To configure document validation options, open the
Preferences dialog box and go to . This page contains preferences for configuring how a document is checked for
both well-formedness and validation errors.
The following options are available:
- Maximum number of validation highlights
- If a validation generates more errors than the number specified in this option, only
the errors up to this number are highlighted in the editor panel and on the stripe that
is displayed at the right side of the editor panel. This option applies to both
automatic validation and manual validation.
- Include problem ID in description
- If this option is selected, validation issues listed in the
Results view or Problems view will
include the problem ID (as provided by the validation engine) in the
Description column.
- Clear validation markers on close
- If this option is selected, all the error markers added in the
Problems view for that document are removed when the Oxygen XML Author Eclipse plugin plugin is closed.
- Enable automatic validation
- This causes the validation to be automatically executed in the background as the
document is modified in Oxygen XML Author Eclipse plugin.
- Delay after the last key event (s)
- The period of keyboard inactivity before starting a new validation (in seconds).
