Properties

The AOT you can use a combination of Alt + Enter keys, or you can right-click on the

AOT and select Properties. The next image is a screenshot of the Properties window.

Each element-type in the AOT will have a fixed set of properties that can be changed

by the developers. The properties marked with bold text have been changed

specifically for the selected element. The pink background that you will see in the

Name property means that it is mandatory. A yellow background means that it

is best practice to have something in that property. The rest of the properties are

defaulted by the system.

The properties are by default organized after relevance relative to the element

it represents. This sorting, can however, be set to alphabetic order from the user

options form. Press the Microsoft Dynamics AX button (Alt + M) and navigate to

Tools | Options to open the user options form. Under the Development tab page,

you can enable the Sort alphabetically checkbox to sort the properties alphabetically,

as shown in the following screenshot X++:
