 -graph drop _all-   seems to be what Sergiy is looking for.

Sergiy--
Yes, the manual describes "Graph" as the default name (p.463).
Perhaps you want -clear all- or -discard-?

Thank you Steven.
Option replace has an inconsistency of its own:

sysuse auto
scatter l w, name("Graph") mc(red)
scatter l w
graph display Graph

Here the second command overrides the graph saved in the first command
without an option -replace-.
Nothing deadly, but can happen, because the reserved name for the
default graph "Graph" is nothing extraordinary like "_ST0001XYZ". Does
the manual describe "Graph" as the such name?

Anyways, just wish graph clear _all was part of the official clear.

Best regards,

Sergiy-

Use the "replace" option when you save graphs. This will clear out graphs
of the same name.

Dear All,

is there any reason why -clear- does not clear the graphs stored in
memory? In Stata version 10 -clear- clears more things then in 9, but
graphs are still not cleared, and repeatitive runs of the program that
saves graphs to memory fail, because graphs already exist. Of course
adding graph drop _all resolves the problem, but why is this not a
part of the -clear- command itself?
