[ltk-user] Erasing things ..

[Peter Herth]

Hi Greg,

what you are looking for is itemdelete. You can pass it either an
integer canvas handle
or a canvas item object. There is also the clear method which removes
all items from a
canvas. Though usually I try to reuse canvas items by re- configure -ing.

HTH,
Peter
