Can the font in the Maple Component Text Area be changed? It's not obvious how to do it from "Component Properties" or anywhere else. 

Thanks, Greg.

Maple 18 and MapleNet 2015.

Show/Hide Contents allows one to hide certain elements of the worksheet. Is there a way settings there (or somewhere) can be locked so that another user is prevented from seeing certain elements of the worksheet?

Rationale: As an example: I'd like my students to use Maple Player to interact with a worksheet, using Maple Component GUI elemnts. I do not want them to see all the code behind that, and in fact explicitly want to rule them seeing some function definitions. I can hide "input, output" when I create the document, but under "View" in Maple Player, the intrepid student could always unhide that and see the code.

I'm using Maple Player 2105, Maple 18 and exploring using Maple/MapleNet/MaplePlayer for education. 

Is the following correct? In order for a my students to access a Maplet, they would need a full version of Maple installed on their system (Maple Player would not be enough) I couldnt get Maplets to work with Maple Player, but maybe that's just me.

(I do not have the $ at the moment to go the MapleNet route)

Thanks for your help,

Greg 

My code works in Maple (18.02), not Maple Player (2015.1). Much headache ensued.

I've isolated the problem in a toy form:

Defn := proc (scaleby)
whattype(scaleby);
end;

Explore(Defn(p), parameters = [p = [1, 10, 100]]);


In Maple will return "integer" for any value of p selected in the combobox.

In Maple Player returns "string" for any value of p selected in the combobox

Is there something I'm missing here? Is Maple Player not backwards compatible to versions of Maple prior to 2015?

My understanding is that Maple Code should export without headache to Maple Player. Is this a solid understanding?

Thanks for helping out a newbie!

Trying to use the Explore() to parametrize a couple of plots simultaneously.

According to the help: "A plotting command to be explored can be a function call to plot, plot3d, a command in the plots package, or any user-defined procedure which returns a two- or three-dimensional plot structure or an Array of such plot structures."

However with the definitions

restart;
with(plots):
with(plottools):
Parab1 := ''plot(a*x^2, x = -1 .. 1, y = -3 .. 3)'';
Parab2 := ''plot(a*x^2+1, x = -1 .. 1, y = -3 .. 3)'';
L:=Array(1..2);
L[1]:=Parab1;L[2]:=Parab2;

I then find the following:

Explore(L[1], parameters = [a = -1.0 .. 1.0]);
gives the expected parabola, and the slider updates the parabola dynamically, as expected, and of course the same with L[2] in place of L[1]. However,

Explore(L, parameters = [a = -1.0 .. 1.0])

does not work, giving "Warning, expecting only range variable x in expression a*x^2 to be plotted but found name a". If I use display(L) in the command above, I receive two adjacent plots, as expected but they do not update as the parameter a is changed via the slider.

I'd guess I need to delay or promote variable evaluation somehow, but I can't seem to make it work. What am I missing?
