view erase
The ERASE command is used to purge any graphics (e.g. analyses, plots, etc.) that are currently display in the selected view. The viewport will remain empty until a subsequent command requires something to be drawn into the window. If no view_name is specified for this command the operation will be applied to the active view.

Extended Definition:
1. Each view created has a name associated with it. The view_name parameter is used to identify a view for a particular operation. In most cases, view_name=all is also a valid entry. The all option indicates "all displayed views". There are eight standard views available when the Adams View is started. These views are: front, top, right, iso, bottom, left, and back. The first four of these standard views are displayed by default when Adams View is started. The user may create new views using the 'VIEW MANAGEMENT CREATE' command, and save/restore their attributes.
If the VIEW_NAME parameter is used, the desired view can be identified by picking in the window or entering the name from the keyboard. Typing the name is the only way to identify a stored view that is not displayed.
