[BUG] cursive.clear() does not work. #762

Open massimo79m opened 1 year ago

massimo79m commented 1 year ago

Calling the cursive.clear() the screen is not cleared. Also tried with cursive::backend:: .... clear() with ncurses, termion and crossterm.

Osx 13.4.1, rust and cursive updated.

Hi, and thanks for the report!

The clear() method is not usually meant to be used directly - it's more of an internal detail to remove anything left on the screen before drawing everything again.

What would you like to do? Remove any existing view?

thank you for the answer! I wrote in https://github.com/gyscos/cursive/discussions/755 i would not to return to "terminal" between cursive.run() calls, and so i would to clear the screen before the first run() to have a void screen.
