Where's AX form information gone?

In the new AX, detailed form information such as the query statement, datasource and field name at first glance seems to be missing when you right click on a form control. Microsoft has deliberately hidden this feature, as it is more targeted towards consultants than end users. To get it back add the following to the end of your URL path:

&debug=completepersonalization

Steps

  1. Right click on a form click Personalise: <FormControlName>
  2. On the Personalise form, click Form information

  3. The form information dialog will appear on the right hand side of the screen
