Syntax

clma

clma all

clma purge

Description

clma deletes all displayed map objects from the current axesm-based map, but leaves the frame if it is displayed.

clma all deletes all displayed map objects, including the frame, but it leaves the map structure intact, thereby retaining the axesm-based map.

clma purge removes the map definition from the current axes, but leaves all objects projected on the axes intact.
