How can i select all information inside a BBox with the least possible amount that is outside

Question

Hi, i really want to get the Data that is inside a BBox but the least count possible that is NOT inside. ATM I'am using something like:

(relation(south,west,north,east);way(south,west,north,east);node(south,west,north,east););( ._; >; );out meta;

It returns everything that is inside but way too much that i don't need. Is there a fast way to reduce this select to those entries that are (mostly) only inside the Bbox?

are you referring to objects that are only partially in your BBox, but are still returned completely ? AFAIK, OverPass cannot split objects and will return e.g. complete ways when they have at least 1 node in the BBox, even when all the others are not.

Thus you will have to do that yourself
