Qt Creator displays Ctrl-L instead of executing

[jsulm]

@Poldi Don't know why it doesn't work. As alternative you can use this command in the terminal: clear

[Poldi]

Entering Clear does nothing

[jsulm]

@Poldi You did press enter after clear?

[aha_1980]

@Poldi Are you on Windows? Then Ctrl-L is not supported, as it is not supported in the Windows cmd. clear + <Enter> should work however, at least it works for me.

It looks like you are using cmd. Ctrl+L is not supported by cmd. It would work if you install clink.

Otherwise the command to clear the screen in cmd is cls.

@aha_1980 I'm on Ubuntu

[cristian-adam]

@Poldi which shell are you using?

[Poldi]

I'm using bash

[cristian-adam]

I just tested on Ubuntu with /bin/bash and the button worked in Terminal.

But when I started an application and in the run settings set Run in Terminal then I just got ^L in the output.

I think the application is started directly and not through a shell. Please do create a bug report https://bugreports.qt.io/
