MorphX is an easy tool to developer. The developer can create forms, menus, tables, manage labels and reports in easy manner by using this IDE.

X++ is a object oriented programming language. It is used in MorphX IDE.

IntelliMorph:

 

IntelliMorph is an runtime environment in Microsoft Dynamics AX. It helps lot to developer. It works that how user interface is displayed to the user. I mean the appearance. The developer adding the fields in the forms but the IntelliMorph technology is displaying the fields in the form with correct appearance like width, height, etc.. So, it reduces the developers work. The developer no need to worry about how the controls appears on the forms and reports.

For example:

 
If the developers set column width to the width property of the the grid mean the grid width should appear based on the form's width. Mean the grid occupy the full width of the form or parent control width. As per this settings the IntelliMorph works to display the grid in the full size.

Everything related about appearance of the form is managed by IntelliMorph. 

 

 

History of Microsoft Dynamics AX

Microsoft Dynamics AX is one of Microsoft's enterprise resource planning software products. It is part of the Microsoft Dynamics family.

Microsoft Dynamics AX was originally developed as a collaboration between IBM and Danish Damgaard Data as IBM Axapta. Axapta was initially released in March 1998 in the Danish and U.S. markets. IBM returned all rights in the product to Damgaard Data shortly after the release of Version 1.5. Damgaard Data merged with Navision Software A/S in 2000 to form NavisionDamgaard, later named Navision A/S. Microsoft acquired the combined company in July 2002.

In September 2011, Microsoft released version AX 2012. It was made available and supported in more than 30 countries and 25 languages.
