image missing Create a sprite to draw the letter T

Create a sprite called "draw t". It can be a small dot (or any shape) because it will be hidden when its script runs.

image missing Add this script to draw a "T"

The first thing the script does is "hide" the sprite. This means that we only see the lines on the stage and not the sprite.

The second step erases (clears) all of the lines that were previously draw.

Question: Does this erase the lines drawn by the other sprites?
