Maple Pro 6.0... I went back to 5.2
Posted: Wed Aug 03, 2005 7:00 pm
After eagerly installing 6.0 and converting an old 5.2 into the new program, I found that adding nodes resulted in quirky behavior.
When adding a new node off of the root, I was presented with the node name prompt. Upon entering that, the node shows up with data from nodes farther up in the tree. Adding text to it changes the data in the afore mentioned node. At this point I tried to repair the tree. The behavior remained odd. Uninstalling the whole program and reinstalling made no change.
Not wishing to loose an 18 MB file, I uninstalled and reinstalled the 5.2 version, and then restored file back from backup copy.
I'm going to avoid 6.0 for now. 5.2 seems to be more stable.
