Is it possible to remove all actors from a renderer in VTK-9.3.0?  
[This old post](https://marc.info/?l=vtkusers&m=126088856004754&w=2) indicates that past VTK versions included vtkRenderer::RemoveAllViewProps(), but that method is no longer supported.  
Thanks!

Hi,  
This method still exists in vtkRenderer/vtkViewport so you can use it.
