turn off validation on a per-field basis

[claudiobosticco]

is it possible to turn off validation on a per-field basis?

You can use conditional validation.

[claudiobosticco]

using applyWhen in a custom validator? But I want to turn off type validation, i.e. I have a float field that I don't want to validate.

Type validation is also used for type conversion (i.e. string to text) so it is necessary for system function. Otherwise, change your float field to a text field to avoid the need to type conversions.
