If you open your inventory and then hold an item, for example a diamond, with your mouse (when you want to move the item in your inventory you can grab it with your mouse to move it)…
If you do /clear @a
while a player is holding an item with their mouse, the item the player is holding doesn't get removed. I also tried to do /kill @e[type=minecraft:item]
but the item still doesn't get removed.
Is removing the item even possible?
I'm playing in 1.16 (snapshot 20w22a)

The reason why
/clear
doesn't work in your tests is because you're in Creative Mode./clear
only affects the grabbed item in GUIs if the user is in Survival or Adventure Mode.Try switching to Survival mode before attempting
/clear
using a command block.If you need to get it done to players in Creative, you're out of luck. Sorry.
