If I highlight some text in the first line of a document and then wish to highlight text of the same color on the next line, and if the highlight color touches the one above in any way then a whole block is extended and highlighted for both lines.  

However it seems to be okay if different highlight colors are used.

When exporting a maple page to PDF there's no way to tell where Maple will split the pages (where text ends on one page and begins on another).  Be nice to have a 'view split pages' options or something.

I find the zooming in on a plot rather cumbersome.  First you zoom and the plot tends to wander then you have to select the pan and zoom again. 

I would find it much better if you could make a box on the plot to zoom to.  Similar to one of AutoCAD's zooming options. 

Seems there's a little tweaking needed for the plot when parameters are left are out for two plots or more.  Maple doesn't take the plot far enough in some cases. 

For example:

plot([(1000^x),(x!)]);         With this format Maple doesn't, but should, include both plots.  It gets 'stuck' as it were on the x-axis going only to 10

however adding parameters fixes the issue, but I shouldn't have to do this. 

plot([(1000^x),(x!)],x=0..35,y=0..1e30);

This book is an excellent read for anyone interested in statistical analysis or mathematics at work in the real world. 

Maybe the next time you decide to open your own business you could use a few of the studies mentioned in this book and put them to use in your own store.  It's quite interesting.
