When you highlight an equation in Maple and drag it to another program, a word processor for example, a small image of it is produced. It would be great to be able to select the format and resolution of these images. Specifically, it would be nice to be able to choose from jpg, gif, or a pdf clipping, and to choose compression levels and resolution, whether or not to include a background mask (or just the text itself), and how much margin to add to the clipping.

When I click on the help menu, Maple hangs for a second or two (spinning beach ball) before it shows the menu. None of the other menus exhibit this behavior, and the help system opens very quickly if I use the button on the button bar, rather than the menu. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any workarounds?

Upgrading to Leopard introduced some conflicts with Maple 10 and 11, apparently arising from the new Java implementation. There are a few threads in this forum which address most of the issues. However, one has, for me, persisted, and I haven't seen it addressed anywhere else online, so I figured it might be good to start a topic.
