Hello,

Patrick reported the problem below on ly-user and I think this is unintended behaviour deserving a tracker issue. Parts are less common with vocal music than with instrumental music (since often one has a vocal score with piano reduction anyway), but not uncommon, so the problem pertains also to what I consider to be the main use case for ambitus.

Yours, Simon

Consider the following snippet:

\version "2.19.17"

music = \relative c'' {
      \clef treble
      \new CueVoice { \set instrumentCueName = "Bass" }
      \cueDuringWithClef #"Bass" #DOWN #"bass"    R1
      g4 a b c
}

Bass = \relative g {
      \clef bass
      g,2 d'
}
\addQuote "Bass" \Bass

\score {
    \new Staff {  \music }
    \layout { \context { \Staff \consists "Ambitus_engraver" }     }
}

which produces the following printed output:


The ambitus clearly includes the cue notes. Since the purpose of the ambitus is to allow performers to determine if the music matches their capabilities, it doesn't seem that the cue notes should be included in the ambitus determination since the performer won't be playing the cue notes.
