Works for me in Maple 12

You probably don't have your Maple tabs opened in new windows. And make sure you aren't mixing any two combinations of crtl-alt-shift by mistake. Sorry I had to say that, but it's been done before. Just eliminating the possibilities, even the simplest of ones, but it should work.
