Re: clip-regions -sorry to bump

[Damian leGassick]

thanks valentin

my bug was twofold: firstly operator error - the pdf which is  
automatically opened after compilation is the non-clipped version -  
doh...
secondly I was also compiling using

-dbackend=eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts

which i don't need for the clip function - removing these stopped the  
error message

but..

with your example i get 2 pdf files, one for each system

cliptest-from-5.1.2-to-7.3.4-clip-1.pdf
Description: Adobe PDF document

 and

cliptest-from-5.1.2-to-7.3.4-clip.pdf
Description: Adobe PDF document

notice also that the noteheads and ledger lines are clipped

and there's no treble clef in the first example, and no clefs at all  
in my own example, nor piano-brace etc

maybe clip-regions isn't the tool i want

is there some other tool that i'm missing? essentially i want a tool  
that will comment out the note-data between two defineable points of  
the score

i could do it by hand but there's lots of parts and it's error-prone
