Hello !

Nop, Andreas, the definition of Clear action tells you to use
OriginalRefFillColour to draw the background of the DynamicLineArt object,
and that's correct

Hmm, I can only guess because I was not in the group which defined the
DynamicLineArt class. I think the intention was that the "Clear" action
resets a DynamicLineArt object to its original state, i.e. including its
original background colour. If an author wants to fill it with the
RefFillColour then he can use the "DrawRectangle" action after the "Clear".
However, this takes a bit more time.

Best regards,

Andreas
