For that to happen the rope would need to be stopped from updating.
As far as I'm aware IX+7 could be used as a flag to choose whether
to run the update code or not (it's always set to 0x83, which I'm
guessing was intended as a pointer to the rope table at 0x8300, and I
don't see that it's used anywhere although I've only looked a ropes
in isolation).
