Hi,
I have a complex function F[x]
When i defined:
ff[x_]:=Arg[F[x]]   (* i tried ComplexExpand[Arg[F[x]]] too *)

I obtainned good Plot[ff[x]] - its real - (no complex)

When i try 
ff1[x_]:=D[ff[x],x];
 I found ff1 is Complex funtion again !!

Why ?

(i tried Evaluate; Element[x,Reals]; FullSimplify - always the same)

Regards, Olaf
