@ 0.1, 0.1 CLEAR or issue the CLEAR command by itself.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Visual FoxPro 3.0b for Macintosh.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
Issue the following commands in the Command window:

SET COLOR TO W+/B    && This will change background color to blue @ 0, 0 CLEAR         && This should paint the whole screen in blue Note that the screen does not change its color.
