How to change "Scaling" in order to during "zoom in" coordinates x and y zoomed in user defined way?

I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution to this: when you plot multiple curves on the same axis with Maple and specify the colors=["blue","red",.....] etc, the ordering is not preserved, Maple seems to just match whichever color to whichever function it pleases. This is v.annoying, surely there must be a way to get around this?

I've finally tracked down a problem I was having to a behavior in Maple I find, possibly, understandable, but need to figure out how to prevent.   Specifically, in expressions of the form x^y, where both x and y may sometimes be zero, the behavior I require is for Maple to evaluate y first so x^0=1 whatever the value of x is.   (Maple does evaulate 0^0=1 itself, I note.)

An example where this sort of thing comes up is in an expression like

sum(x^k,k=0..5)

Hey folks I'm doing a series expansion in terms of a small variable called e in my case. In this equation there is also a constant, alpha, that is of the same order as e. What I would like to do is expand this and if I expand it to say, order e, I would like not only e^2 terms to be ignored, but also e*alpha and alpha^2 terms. Is there a way to do this?

The order of 1 in any finite field (that I tried) created by GF is NULL. For example,

F:=GF(3,2):
use F in order(one) end;

It should be 1.
