How to clear a chart from a canvas so that hover events cannot be triggered?

Question

I\'m using Chartjs to display a Line Chart and this works fine:

// get line chart canvas
var targetCanvas = document.getElementById(\'chartCanvas\').getConte

This worked for me. Add a call to clearChart, at the top oF your updateChart()

`function clearChart() {
    event.preventDefault();
    var parent = document.getElementById('parent-canvas');
    var child = document.getElementById('myChart');          
    parent.removeChild(child);            
    parent.innerHTML ='';             
    return;
}`
