How to display Unit call, with coefficient 1?

C_R — Sat, 11 Jul 2026 13:32:35 Z

This is about avoiding that automatic simplifcation removes a factor of "1" before a unit.

Example output with removed factors:

Readers of technical notes not familar with Maple interprete the above missing values before units as layout errors.
Also reading it (e.g. with a screen reader) sounds strange: "m_l equals kg" or "m_1 of kg". As a work around a float one (i.e.: 1.) can be used, which in some instances does not look as nice as

To improve the above I thought of an inert "1" or an inert multiplication that could be removed by the value command in subsequent calculations (not necessarily visible in a document to the reader when the input is hidden).
I could not find a way for an inert "1". With inert multiplication using %* a grey asterix is printed

Can we make the grey multiplication symbol invisble?

PDF printing not working

Maple 2026 print layout

PDF created with print -> Adobe pdf printer -> save to file

Is that related to the attached worksheet or my installation?
If that is not reproducible on other installations, can I someone provide a file that prints correctly to test my installation?

Anything I can do about the mixed up fonts?

Other question: Where is the pagesetup in Maple 2026? Maple shows in the printlayout a pagebreak at about 80% of the displayed page. AI could not tell me

(edit) where the page setup is to adjust the page size.

Matt's example of an arithmetic progression

Mister_Matthew_abc — Wed, 08 Jul 2026 06:42:49 Z

Hi Maple community, and all,
an arbitrary arithmetic progression, with starting value , s,

and increasing by "a", where "a" is the value to add, every time,
so
{Arithmetic Progression} is found by calculating
s+a*index

where index is a running index
see attached
arithmetic_progression_with_1_and_8.mw

arithmetic_progression_with_1_and_8.mw

hopefully, that is useful, as an example, of an arithmetic progression.

Matt

eBook help video?

Ronan — Tue, 07 Jul 2026 12:01:16 Z

Are there any demonstration help videos on creating an eBook? Currently I am struggling with the pages Having a laid out example would really help.

I would like to do an eBook version of my help pages to send to some people. Hopefully I can use the current help worksheets. The are formatted based on the Maple help structure.

My currrent structure in the help section is:

Rational Trigonometry

(about 40 help topics)

RTProjective

(about 20 help topics)

UHG

(about 20 help topics)

Edit:- I have made a small step of progress using the " Assistant eBook template" but I am getting this error on build. I don't know how to find the cause of the error.

How do I make a single line list?

How to make ChatGPT use Maple via MCP

erik10 — Fri, 03 Jul 2026 23:00:04 Z

Dear Maple users

I am testing Maple 2026, which will be used at our school after the summer holiday. I see that AI have now found its way to Maple on a new level. AI can be used internally via the AI Assistant, but as I understand it will also be possible to let ChatGPT use Maple in order to provide an answer, instead of using it's own way to do math. I just cannot figure out how it is done. Having a school license for Maple means we take part in the Maplesoft Elite Maintenance Program (EMP). In Maple 2026 i have found Maple MCP on the "My Maple" båndet. When I click it I am however just referred to the main page of Maplesoft. My question: How can I make Maple MCP work for me?

Kind regards,

Erik V.
