LCD simulation not clearing

When stepping through a programme in simulation a couple of times, txt on screen is not cleared as you go through the DISPLAYCLEAR macro, it only seems to clear later in the programm if something else is written to the display.
Problem seen on MIAC and on EB006 / EB005 boards using FC6.06.
Bug reported here as "Bug Report" in FC6 help fails to send report.
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,

I had a quick go at replicating the problem with this test file but it seems to be running fine here on my machine under 6.0.7. Does this program have the same problem for you?

Hi,
"Yes" your test seems to work OK on my machine, Ive attached my programme using a MIAC, and added a comment just above the last macro in MAIN "DisplayClear" which should remove the "Working" message
Regards,
Chris

Cheers Chris,

Managed to replicate the issue with your program though if I try and replicate elsewhere it works as expected. I'll have a dig and see if I can work out what's going wrong.
