New and Improved Plot Builder

The Plot Builder was completely rewritten in Maple 2022 to make it even easier for new users, especially students, to visualize their 2-D and 3-D expressions.

The new plot builder:

• 

Supports multiple expressions
In previous versions of the plot builder, it was only possible to plot a single version. The new plot builder has been enhanced to allow users to plot multiple expressions.

• 

Returns a plot instantly
The plot builder in Maple 2022 will automatically select an initial choice of plot type. Previous iterations of the plot builder required you to specify plot type before a plot was returned.

• 

Creates animations
If your expression contains parameters, the new plot builder will enable you to create an animation with a few clicks.

Improvements to the Student:-ODEs subpackage

The Student:-ODEs subpackage, which was introduced in Maple 2021, was designed to help teachers present and students understand the basic material of a standard first course in ordinary differential equations. The subpackage has been extended so that context panel operations appear when the package is loaded. This change ensures that students can start using the package without having to know any of the commands.
