Description
Problem to be solved
In choral music, it's often useful to know what the vocal range of each voice on the staff is in closed score, rather than the range for all singers on the staff. For instance, if Soprano and Alto parts are notated as voices on a single staff, the ambiti should show separate ranges for each.
Your idea
Having added an ambitus to a clef, allow the user to select in properties whether it applies to all voices in a staff or a subset of voices (one possibility would be checkboxes for each voice, which default to all being on). The user would also be able to somehow add extra ambiti for the other voices.

Research direction
Start by locating the ambitus-on-clef handling and the ambitus properties UI. Determine how voices on a single staff are represented and how additional ambiti could be added. Done means users can choose all or selected voices for an ambitus and add separate ambiti for other voices in closed score.
