you don't. the nspire basic is not graphics capable like TI-8x calculators.

so there is no way of cleaning displayed things while in a program?

yeap. you can always make a Lua script - that you can create in computer software - or a C/ASM program with ndless.

Well, there is Menu->action->Clear History
But I don’t think there is anyway of getting that into a program

Yeah, there is no programmable component to clear history from the Calc app in TI-nspire. You have to do it manually through Menu->Action->Clear History

If what you want is to hide some text from the Calc app history, you can use textboxes.

Code: [Select]

Text "You lost the game!",0the ",0" at the end tells the calc to exclude the text from the Calc app output.

i'm using those, i was trying to avoid them because its harder to use variables in the middle of those but i guess I'll have to use this:

Code: [Select]

Text "I have "&string(x)&" peanuts!",0
But thanks jonius7

Yeah, it does make labeling multiple variables more fiddly with the &s but it gets the job done :)
