Is there a way to clear the Extendscript Toolkit console from the script running?

Thanks!

I'm wondering if there is some way to clear the console from within a running script.

Ah, that would be a no. ExtendScript Toolkit is not a scriptable app.

    That's very interesting. Definitely outside the box thinking.

    Top right corner of the console window has a "Clear" option.

    Hi,

    I'm aware of the clear button you mention. I'm wondering if there is some way to clear the console from within a running script.

    Thanks anyway!
