Try this using max_symbolic. It won't do as much as you might like, but you can plot it, at least.

Edit - didn't have time to include the code earlier:

plot(max_symbolic(x,1),(x,-5,5),ymin=0)

Thank you very much for your help. This does what I want.

Try using a lambda function.

This works for me:

sage: plot(lambda x: max(x, 1), (-5, 5), ymin=0)

Thank you, too. I really appreciate your help. This also does what I want.
