can you please post your other settings? (CAS and Home)
I get only the expression unchanged, like user rombva,
no matter what settings I make.
Many thanks in advance!

Terribly sorry... The screen shot I posted above was apparently obtained using a different firmware version, possibly a beta version which didn't say "BETA" in the top corner. All the recent firmware versions (I think!) return x^4+1 for an input of factor(x^4+1), as you and rombva said. My mistake! Sorry!

Thanks for the replies.

Just an FYI, the CAS 1.5.0 version does do what you want with default settings I think. Take a look at the public beta just made available if you want.
