Clear Immediate Debug Window (Visual Studio for Mac)

When I use the Immediate window, it fills up with output as I debug.

I would like to erase it so the stuff from the last debug session is gone.

Unlike Xcode (which has a Trash gadget), there doesn’t seem to be a way to do this. No contextual menu does it, either.

I’m happy doing it manually. (https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/4678119f-0f8e-4ea3-8f7d-2f3018376bcd/how-to-clear-the-immediate-window?forum=vsx doesn’t seem at all relevant.)

And >cls (from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/463287/how-can-i-celar-am-immediate-window-in-ms-vs-cc.html) does not work, at least on the Mac.

How can I clear it?

    Hi @David Dunham ,

    Our tag(vs-debugging) is related to Visual Studio IDE, which is different from Visual Studio for MAC. Please start a new thread in the Visual Studio for MAC of Developer Community where you will get a better support. Thanks for your understanding.

    Sincerely,
    Anna
