I think the trick is to use invisible notes to indicate the range. Use \hideNotes and \unHideNotes to make invisible notes. As long as the range you want to show is larger than what's really in the music, that should be simple to do. Otherwise, you have to add the Ambitus engraver to a separate Voice which only contains the invisible notes, see the ambitus-mixed.ly example in the Tips and Tricks document.

Hi, I'm using lilypond 2.2.4 under Gentoo/Linux.
I'm writing a little counterpoint-tutorial and want the ambitus at beginning not to show the real voice's ambitus, but a user-defined one to show which ambitus we 'can' use in counterpoint and not 'do' use.
Is there any chance?
Sorry if the question is stupid, I'm new to both lilypond and the user-list.
Thanks, ragnar
