I guess Bart is saying that the RegularPolygon handler has an API method named "clear" (which clear the sketch layer's renderer and destroy the features in that layer), which the other drawing handlers don't have. I'm personally wondering why "clear" is in an API method in the reg polygon handler in the first place. Eric
