Clear Display
I am a new user of V9, but have used earlier versions. In the emulation mode I am finding that clear display does not clear the whole display.
I print the project name at 0,0 of the display
then move cursor to 0,2 and print string
then move cursor to 12,2 and print value
Calling clear display does not clear the value text at cursor 12,2 ?
I have not tried this in hardware so it may be simulation only, or my misunderstanding of the clear screen function.

Hi, well I downloaded your change, but can see no difference in the flowchart, and the result is the same. Here is a pdf of my chart and the one you listed as changed.

Re: Clear Dispay
It looks like both images are from my flowchart.
Your flowchart has a clear display as the first icon in the loop.
My first icon within the loop is PrintString "Test"
As the screen does completely clear for me, have you checked to see if you have got all the latest updates?
You can download all the updates by selecting Help, Library Updates...
Change the Files in-use to full database
If any components have been updated, you will need to select Reload for the effects to take place.

Re: Clear Dispay
OK will get all updates. I tried the same code with a different display, same result.
I also reverted to V5 choosing generic display and that works ok,
I will come back to you after updates which may be tomorrow for you as I live in New Zealand and we have 13 hours between us.
