I just got an email saying a maple primes moderator deleted my question as 'SPAM'. It was not remotely SPAM but a strraight forward question about how to determine lengths of lines drawn in Maple Sketcher. 

The email tells me and gives me a link to 'contact' but it's not clear which of the many possible contacts listed to use!

Here's the email:

Your MaplePrimes post Length of a line drawn in Sketcher? was deleted by a moderator for the following reason: Spam. If you believe this was done in error, please contact Maplesoft customer service: https://www.maplesoft.com/contact.

I'd like to use Maple to make measurements on a map (Dealey Plaza). I can load an image in Sketcher and draw lines on it, but can't figure out how to access the lengths of those lines.

Using Maple-18 on Window 11...

I have a set of curves in a Maple 'vector.' I want to plot them all on the same figure, but if call 'display' with the vector it makes separate plots for each one. I have to all it with each plot individual to get them on the same plot:

lc is a 'vector' of curves (I use 'vector' because I want to append and that doesn't work for 'list')

display(lc) -- plots a separate plot for each element of lc

display(lc[1], lc[2], lc[3],...) puts them all on one plot as needed, but as there will be a large numbe of curvesr it's extremely tedious.

It is a Huygens principle based simulation of diffraction.

I find that if if declare a variable in a procedure inside a if  statement it Maple things something is wrong with the if statement:

tSound=proc(xMic,yMic,zMic,xGun,yGun,zGun,mode)  

global vSound;  

local locMic:=Vector([xMic,yMix,zMix]);  

local locGun:=Vector([xGun,yGun,zGun]);   l

ocal delGunToMix;   if mode=1 then #`direct  `    

local x=0.0;    <==remove this sand fine

delGunToMix:=locMic-locGun;    

return vSound*Norm(delGunToMix);  

elif  mode=2 then #`reflect off wall at z=0`        

end if;   return 0.0;  end proc:


Error, invalid 'if' statement
==>I can delclare the variable 'local' outside the if. Why? It doesn't make much sense, though not that hard to avoid.

I'd like to plot vectors with one beginning at the head of the other. The application is a reflection at a surface. VectorPositionPlot doesn't seem to do it.

The same kind of plot would be used to illustrate vector addition.
