[sib-access] Re: Clef and Pitch

Dear Dave
I have used clef changes many times and it worked as described in the
manual. I just went through scores, where I applied clef changes to make
sure, that I wasn't dreaming. Well, this makes me think, that my problem has
to do with this particular score.
Thanks so much
Claudio
