A cut is a polyline spanning the page, two points by default. Add a vertex, drag it, remove it.

Needed because publishers print section labels (VERSE 1, INTRO) in the left margin at the same height as the previous system's lyrics. On page 1 of Engel (Bosse/Partitura edition), the boxed VERSE 1 and the preceding system's bass lyric line occupy the same rows — ink on both sides of the page throughout that band — so no horizontal line separates them.

Done: that page cuts correctly, with VERSE 1 in slice 2 and the bass lyrics in slice 1.
