Thanks for your help, but that is not what I need anymore. Vertical
placement was fixed for me by Pierre a few emails before. (Maybe I confused
you with what I quoted.)

I now have this code:


\version "2.19.13"

ottavaLineUp = {
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.stencil = #ly:line-spanner::print
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.bound-details = #`((left . ((Y . 0)

(stencil-align-dir-y . ,UP)))
                                                   (right . ((Y . 0)
                                                             (text .
,(make-draw-dashed-line-markup (cons 0 -1.2))))))
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.left-bound-info =
#ly:line-spanner::calc-left-bound-info-and-text
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.right-bound-info =
#ly:line-spanner::calc-right-bound-info
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.minimum-length = ##f
}

ottavaLineDown = {
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.stencil = #ly:line-spanner::print
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.bound-details = #`((left . ((Y . 0)

(stencil-align-dir-y . ,DOWN)))
                                                   (right . ((Y . 0)
                                                             (text .
,(make-draw-dashed-line-markup (cons 0 1.2))))))
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.left-bound-info =
#ly:line-spanner::calc-left-bound-info-and-text
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.right-bound-info =
#ly:line-spanner::calc-right-bound-info
}

#(define-markup-command (topAlign layout props arg)
   (markup?)
   (let* ((mol (interpret-markup layout props arg)))
     (ly:stencil-aligned-to mol Y 1)))

ottavava = {
  \ottavaLineUp
  \ottava #1
  \set Staff.ottavation = \markup \concat \bold \topAlign { "8" \tiny "va" }
}

ottavavb = {
  \ottavaLineDown
  \ottava #-1
  \set Staff.ottavation = \markup \concat \bold { "8" \tiny "vb" }
}

\relative c'' {
  c1
  \ottava #1 c c
  \ottava #-1 c c
  \ottava #0 c
  \ottava #1 c
  \ottava #-1 c
  \break
  \ottava #0 c
  \ottavava c c
  \ottavavb c c
  \ottava #0 c
  \ottavava c
  \ottavavb c
}


This works great for the vertical placement, but horizontal alignment is
different than with default \ottava. This leads to a faulty display of the
ottavaBracket concerning only one single note.
I’ll attach an image of the problem.

What I am looking for is a way to alter horizontal alignment of the
ottavaBracket to the NoteHeads(, which works with the above overrides). So
that the 8 begins not at the center of the first note head, but a bit left
of it, and the bracket ends not at the center of the last note head, but a
bit right of it.
