Okay, did some more work. I created a new question with the following algorthim:

$ansmathml1 = mathml("(-infinity,1/6]");
$ansmathml2 = mathml ("(-infinity, 1/6)");
$ansmathml3 = mathml ("(1/6, infinity)");
$ansmathml4 = mathml ("[1/6, infinity)");

I figured out what caused the clipping, if I don't put the variable through the equation editor and just render it in the multiple choice field as the variable, I get 

So I still have my issue with the square brackets being turned into round ones. However, the clipping issue has gone away.

If I tediously edit my multiple choice so that "(-infinity," is put through the equation editor but $ansmathml is not and then back to the equation editor for a second time to get "]" I get the fraction to appear if not perfectly, than without the clipping. See 

It's not perfect, but at least it is now a lot more legible. 

Yes, that's what I have defined in the equation editor. (-infinity, $ans1] and other randomly generated combinations of (-infinity, $wrongans), [$ans1, infinity), etc.

The reason I have to do that, is because if I do as you suggest (and that's what I started with but didn't work) and have something like $ansmathml2=mathml ("(-infinity,$frac]");, Maple T.A. either interprets the square bracket as a round one or  renders the square bracket as a round bracket. It also clips like so  clipping issues part 2.jpg

Try: https://file.io/7lnfwh for the exported question.

@jmtrik I've exported and attached the question.

Edit: I am unsure that the file is attached. I click the file upload tool, select the exported zip but nothing seems to indicate that the zip file is attached. Tried attaching non-zip file same result.

I changed the code to 

$ans1=#define algorithm for answer here;
ansmathml=maple("printf(MathML[ExportPresentation]($ans1))");

originally the code in the question was simply ansmathml=mathml($ans1);

Both codes create a Math ML object. However in the case of both codes when $ans1 is a fraction like say 1/6, the fraction will not completely display in the multiple choice selections as the fraction is cropped at the top and bottom.  (see example below)

Hi, I am creating a randomly generated multiple choice question that generates a random linear inequality and generates a right answer and a series of wrong answers in interval notation. The multiple choice answers are in the format like (−∞, $ansmathml] or ($wrongansml1, ∞) where $ansmathml and $wrongansml are rational numbers generated by algorithms then passed through the mathml command. The algorithm works but my concern is that when $ansmathml or $wrongansml1 are fractions, the top and bottom of the fraction are clipped when the browser draws them, so that while legible, part of the fraction is not visible. If the algebra produces an integer result the mathml looks fine. 

Is there any way to change the behaviour of the mathml so that the fractions aren't clipped like this?  Or is there a better way to create randomly generated interval notation questions?

Is it possible to change the length of time before a user is prompted by a dialogue box to remain logged in? In our testing of Maple T.A. 2016.1, we have been prompted quite often to click to remain logged in. Our concern is that our student assessments can be up to two hours in length and are proctored, so we wouldn't want to waste student and proctor time signing them back into Maple T.A. So what would be the best way to ensure that this does not happen?
