How to clear a KivyMD MDList (remove all of the Items)?

Question

How to clear a KivyMD MDList of all of the dynamically created Items? Example:

for x in range(10):
   item = OneLineListItem(text=str(x))
   self.List.add_widget(item)

We've got a list with 10 items now. I want to create a function that will remove all of them leaving the list empty. Is there any inside function to get something like that?

`self.List = []` ? The content is getting garbage collected then. — Jan, Aug 31 '20 at 17:08
I'm talking about KivyMD. When you have a MDList class I'm adding multiple OneLineListItem/s. After that I want to delete all of them from the list. — bobk810i, Aug 31 '20 at 21:02
You can clear list just like python lang does. Or you can use clear_widgets() on these Item's parent. — 320V, Aug 31 '20 at 22:10

Try list.clear(). that would remove all the elements of the list.

a = [1,2,3]
a.clear()
a
Out[4]: []
