What are the best techniques/tools/functions for rendering tabular data in more human-friendly ways within the Maple graphical user interface?

I work with large tables that would be too long to render completely in the interface, and doing so would not be an effective way to represent the data to readers of a Maple Document. However, rendering subsets of the data with headers, captions, colors, and footnotes would be beneficial. It would also be helpful to ensure each data type, such as dates, integers, and strings, was rendered appropriately. Ideally, the table would be rendered with sizing to fit the data rather than always the full width of the Maple Document.

Subsetting the data seems to be straightforward by indexing against the underlying variable. However, the operations available to define the rendering are unclear.

I see that the "Maple 2024 Help" includes documentation for "DocumentTools,Layout,Table." This appears to be the function to focus on specifically, and the DocumentTools Package seems to be the Package where control over layout is provided. Is this the only Package and Function to focus on, or are there alternative techniques?

Dear maple user i have a partial differential equation whose first approximation solution is w(r,z)=(r^2-h^2)/4 , i want to calculate the two approximations. I am attaching the file please see

Hello

I need to use the Ritt algorithm to find the characteristic sets of a set of differential equations. In the past, it seems there was a Maple package by D. Wang available through Maple Applications, but this no longer appears to be the case. I managed to download an old set of files from the author’s site, dated February 1996, which is a Maple V3 package. The instructions in the Readme file mention that using the provided Makefile, an m-file containing all the functions will be created, which can then be loaded into Maple. Unfortunately, running make -f Makefile did not create anything, so I am wondering if I could get some assistance on how to convert this package to something compatible with the latest Maple releases.

The source (txt) files are structured as follows:

Example: 

1) Comments
2) Definition of the User functions - something like

 

dcharsets[dcharset] := proc() `charsets/d_charset`(args) end:

dcharsets[dmcharset] := proc() `charsets/d_mcharset`(args) end:

dcharsets[dcs] := proc() `charsets/d_charser`(args) end:

dcharsets[dmcs] := proc() `charsets/d_mcs`(args) end:

dcharsets[dics] := proc() `charsets/d_ics`(args) end:

and

read `charsets.m`:

# set of non-zero remainders of d-polys in ps wrt d-ascending set as
#       user level function
`charsets/d_remset` :=

subs(`charsets/class`=`charsets/d_class`,
     `charsets/remseta`=`charsets/d_remseta`,
     `charsets/premas`=`charsets/d_premas`,op(`charsets/remset`)):

and lots of Maple procedures - Example below

 

`charsets/d_charset` := proc(ps,lst,medset)

....

end:

the source file ends with the following lines.

read dhelp;
save `dcharsets.m`:
quit

Many thanks

Hi,
 i observe this error as if a sum() was used instead of a add() in dsolve

> assume(g > 0): dsolve({diff(r(t), t$2) + g * t * r(t), r(0) = r0, D(r)(0) = r1},  r(t));
Error, (in dsolve) unsupported type of index, _a

any help or advice, please ?

Sincerely.

when i do the convert in maple to latex  is do but not fully simplify and some kind of clearer must write for paper and i must do this case by case by hand but how i can simplify before i convert to latex and remove all extra thing like multiply between two squar root

How do I stop truncation in Maple 2023?  Everything was working fine yesterday but today all of a sudden all assignments are truncated to only 10 digits.

If:

with(Units) :

a_Terra := 149598023.*Unit(km) :
A_Luna := 0.136 :
L_Sol := 3.75E28*Unit(lm) :
S_sphere := r -> 4*Pi*r^2 :

J_Luna := A_Luna*L_Sol/S_sphere(a_Terra) :

Then:

"" gives ""

but

"" gives ""

"" without "evalf" also provides a truncated number instead of showing the "Pi" for an exact value.  So something is wrong in the assignment settings.

Somehow the settings must have changed for how assignments are stored. The answer is irrational with a factor of "1/Pi" and so should not be truncated for calculations.  "a_Terra" is assigned with 9 significant digits ("" km) which I am wondering if maybe why "evalf" is truncating to 10 digits (though it should round and not truncate in that case) but it wasn't doing this before.

"Tools --> Options --> Precision" hasn't changed is set globally to round screen display to 32 decimal places and to round calculation to 64 significant digits.

I do not think I ever saw this warning messages from dsolve. This is _Clairaut first order ode. When adding the option singsol=all in the dsolve call, Maple replies with 

I do not have earlier version of Maple to try as my C: drive died and lost all my Maple's installed versions. I need to to try to install older version of Maple sometime and check.

Is this new warning and why does it show? Is this suppose to happen?

I also noticed these warning messages show up only the first time dsolve is called on this ode.

Calling it again right after, using the same command, the warning messages no longer show up, which is  even more strange.

I'm looking for a comprehensive ebook on mathematical modeling, specificaly focused on dynamical systems and how to use Maple for simulations and analysis. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good resource or textbook that covers these topics thoroughly?

I noticed very serious problem in Maple 2024.1

This is new windows 10  22H2  installation. With Maple 2024.1. I've only seen this using Maple and no other windows applications. I have 2 monitors and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card.

What happens is that sometimes (may be 2-3 times each day), Maple frontend gets all mangled up. I could not figure what causes it. it could be when I move the window from one terminal to the other. sometimes it happens when I open a debugger window.

Only way to fix this is to close all of Maple and start it again. 

Just wondering if anyone seen anything like this and what can cause it. Again, it is only Maple that shows this problem, no other windows application does this. Have 128 GB Ram and PC is only 2 years old.

This is the very first time I see this in Maple and used Maple for long time and on this same PC before and had two terminals also before all the time. I have no idea what causes it.

Could it be Java problem in Maple 2024.1 ?

It happens from time to time that context menus do not appear. Normally, they appear at mouse-over (i.e. when the cursor is moved over an menu item).

Example: Right-click on input line

A Maple restart is required to get the normal behaviour back.

Recently I noticed that repeatedly clicking at different location on the menu item make the contex menus appear again.

This can be workarround if a restart is not acceptable.

It seems that the new Java IDE, which was introduced with Maple 2021, is more susceptible to this phenomen. 

All on Windows 10.

Since this behaviour is rare I could not identify a clear pattern which system state or event could be responsible for the appearance of this phenomen.

I would be interested if someone else has observed it and found another solution how to get the menus back without restarting Maple.

Any idea why calling solve(eqs,unknowns) gives Error, (in is/internal) type does not exist when the unknowns are in a set, but the error goes away when the unknowns are in a list? Is this expected or is this a bug?

Update

Reported to Maplesoft support.

Something seems to have changed.  I do not now have Maple 2024.0 to check or earlier Maple's as I have to reinstall windows since my C:\ drive died. 

I installed Maple 2024.1 new on windows 10 home edition.

I noticed now when evaluating the current cell, the cursor automatically jumps to next cell, which is what I want and how Maple always worked.

But now the cursor jumps to the end of the command in the next cell. Before, I could swear that not how it worked and it used to jump to the start of the next cell.

This makes it very confusing, as I keep looking for where the cursor is now.

Why was this changed in 2024.1? I looked at option and see nothing to change this. 

Here is worksheet and small movie. 

This is my display options

Update

I tried to change the cursor size and thickness in windows 10 itself (using settings->Ease of access->Text cursor) and made it much bigger and restarted Maple but this had no effect. Cursor inside Maple remained the same.

I was hoping if there is a way to make the cursor bigger then this will make it easier to see where it jumped to when hitting enter.

It is bad, since the Maple cursor jumps to random places in the next cell. sometimes it jumps to the middle of the code in the next cell when there are more than one line there.

Here is a movie. Notice how it jumped to the start of the second line now in next cell in one case and not to the end of the code.

I can't believe no one at Maplesoft have noticed this and is able to fix it. This is ridiculous behavior. I spend few seconds each time I hit enter looking for where the cursor has landed as I keep looking at start of the next cell and it is not there. I could have 10-20 lines of code in one cell and have too look to find where the cursor is hidden in these 20 lines.

It natural for one to look for where the cursor is when woking and this makes it annoying. Hopefully someone can find a way to tell Maple to bring the old behaviour back where cursor jumps always to the start of the next cell.

I was wondering if this has ever been discussed?

File preview would make life easier when searching an older document.

Since it seems to be a non trivial programming task, I was wondering whether generating a pdf document in parallel to a worksheet could be an option (in a subfolder). However, doing this by hand for all existing documents is not pratical.
 

Could this (generating pdf files) be done by a batchjob?
