Hi Midg

You cannot do that with a capo because the top and lower E are tunes 1 tone tone!. When you want a higher tuning, than the capo comes in handy!.
Aside from that, you wll have to retune which should not be a problem!. There are only 4 strings that are out of tune!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A capo, or cheater, won't help in the drop tuning unless you tune first and then clamp for a higher pitch!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't think it would be possible with a capo!. I'd just re-tune it!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
