In what context did you call it? I suspect this is a method in some HSA specific class. |

If you are not using the HSA classes, you have three options that I know of: 1. Fill the screen with a large filled in box of your background colour. 2. Just repaint() the applet (or whatever it is you're using), this will call the update() method which clears the screen for you. 3. If you are using double buffering you just free the previous frame's image and redraw the new one. |
