I am trying to set the default Cartesian and Parametric variables to set them golbally or locally in a command..

How do I achieve this?

Equivalence symbol...

Does this symbol for equicalence exist in Maple ?  I can't find it in the pallets. 

If not is there a way of making it so I could add it to my favourites?

Check if matrix is skew symmetric...

I am trying to check if a matrix quailfies as being skew-symmetric. So I added it to it's transpose to get a matrix of zeroes. 

How do I check it  equals the ZeroMatrix?

Display a simple plane...

3d plane plotting

This seems rediculous to have to ask. I just want to display a plane. The plot is used in other plots so I gave it a name. I get "length of output exceed 1000000" and the plot does not display. I then have to "display" the plot name "display(plt0)" to see it. I had tried geom3d but found if infuriating, (maybe I am missing something there).

An I missing something simple here?

Page print formating problem Maple 2024...

pdf export table

I have a print format problem in Maple 2024.  For documents I print out, I use a special layout where all the contents are inside a table. The table is rigged to print on A4 paper. This is useful for my math notes. I havent done this for 18+ months. There appears to be a bug in Maple 2024. Only the first page is printed. Things work ok in Maple 2023. Maybe it is a setting difference or corruption in my install. Could somebody confirm this. Also if you can reproduce the problem could you let me know if it is in Maple 2025. I haven't upgraded yet.
