Render a Quarto book without evaluating code chunks.

Description

I am writing a quarto book, and some code chunks take a while to render. I want to render the entire book to see and resolve formatting issues without evaluating any of the code chunks. I tried adding the following to my _quarto.yml file bt didn't work.

execute:
  eval: false

Is there another way to achieve that?

The code chunks that had eval: true was overriding the yml parameter and causing the problem. After removing them all with Find in Files, it works!

Just to clarify: this behavior is by design. In general, the principle is that, more specific context settings override more general contexts, from project-level to document-level to element-level.
