set clip loop_start or loop_end to negative number?

Why can't I set either of these to be earlier than 1.1.1?

I get an 'invalid syntax' error

Surely this can't be a restriction...

Try setting the 1.1.1 within you clip to somewhere in the middle of your clip so that there's audio outside of the loop brace...

The whole setting of loop_start and loop_end is fraught with problems...

Hi S4racen, thanks for the tip.

I mean though that I'm unable to move the loop before 1.1.1, when 1.1.1 is somewhere in the middle of the audio. I often have 1.1.1 set to somewhere in the middle, eg when there is a beatless intro to a track.
