Yes, fsolve was updated according to fsolve,details and efficiency must have been one of them.

By the way, solve can solve the integral with an appropriate upper bound

((2*sqrt(alpha) = int(1/sqrt(sin(x__0) - sin(x)), x = 0 .. x__0)) assuming (0 < x__0 and x__0 < Pi/2))

@Scot Gould 
Thank you. This is inline with my "discovery" above. I have tried this unsuccessfully in the past.

Do you have any idea why delayed evaluation

g := alpha -> fsolve('f(x__0) = 2*sqrt(alpha)', x__0 = 0 .. Pi*1/2*0.9);
g(2);

does not work in the original problem inverse_function_with_fsolve.mw

@Preben Alsholm 
I am glad that I have asked. Your way of using unapply gave the hint what was missing in my function definitons.
Unapply seems to be better in the sense that an evaluation takes place.

When the toolbar disappears, can you make the menu buttons reappear by moving the mouse over the toolbar?

I have been doing this for quite some time (since Maple 2021 at least). In my case, only the 7 or 8 left keys disappear, and this happens rarely and is not reproducible.

I use a AMD graphic card.

@sursumCorda 

I pasted what you have send. Maybe there  are some hidden 2d characters in your Maple worksheet that cause the error.

@Carl Love 

In principle, you are right.

However, the contact elements I am discussing are massless which means that they only describe the geometry of the contact. In Maplesim other components with mass and innertia have to be added if this is relevant for the application.

Q1: The menu offers radio buttons (a channel at the time) which either allow to select the SI system or chose a unit.

I checked with Wikipedia/SI: It could be that only derived units (as radian m/m) are offered.

Degrees are "permitted non-SI unit". I will make a software change request that arcdeg are offered becaue they are very common in daily live and its more likely that users want to convert from radians to arcdeg.

Q2: It's a use error. I found out the I have to enter the unit first before changing the channel ("enter unit"). Otherwise this happens

The flow from right to left (first  fill in the unit) is unusual. I will suggest to change this.

With right click on a tab one gets for example "updates,v2023" with can be inserted in a hyperlink or used in a command Help(updates,v2023)

@Olesen 

If I understand correctly. Where normaly

can be seen it's empty? This would be new to me. Did you try these buttons as well?

@Carl Love 

u and u(phi) corrected in Maple 2023

@Carl Love 

Maybe not the same root cause, because this question is still partly open.
I will therefore delete the tag doublicate-question.

An excellent way to learn typesetting details.

@nscheng 
This should help you get started with Maple MathML tags

@nscheng 

This site for example enables you to generate MathML code.

Unfortunately, the code can’t be used straight away, because Maples typesetting tags only roughly correspond to MathML tags (see here under exports and here for MathML).

If you execute

with(typesetting);

you get an overview of the MathML elements (all starting with an m like mi and mo) that can be used in Maple.

My idea of using a MathML editor was based on the fact that Maple can interpret MathML when copied from an editor. It can, but “only” in the way that MathML is converted to 2d-Math (which renders not as you wanted). There is no option “paste as Maple typesetting tags”. (This would be in combination with an external editor a way to avoid MathML typesetting via coding).

The only way I can think of that a MathML editor can help you is the following.

• Edit an expression as you desire in an editor.

• Investigate the MathML code for used elements (like mo, mi, msup, …) and html codes for characters (starting with &#). Pasting the code here helps structuring the elements in separate code lines.
• Enter the used the elements as Maple tags the way mmcdara described it.

I hope this helps a bit.

Wow!
