Would you mind being more specific?
If you dont want to draw something, then you can just not put it in the love.draw() function.
Like this:

Code: Select all

function love.draw()
if not love.keyboard.isDown(" ") then love.graphics.rectangle("fill",20,20,100,175) end
end

Not sure what you're trying to do, but if you want to "clear the screen" take a look at love.graphics.clear.

Think he means removing all images and graphics from the screen.

Just to be even more clear: the screen clears itself. Every time love.draw runs, you start with a blank (black) screen.
