Pierre, that works perfectly! And I can easily tweak it as needed.
Thank you very much!

Foe ex.

 \once\override Staff.OttavaBracket.extra-offset = #'(0.4 . 0)

 \once\override Staff.OttavaBracket.minimum-length = #0.1


Should work.

Sorry David, I don't understand what you want to do there.

Your first option works nicely but the spanner part of the symbol
stretches too far. Now that I see the syntax of what I'm looking for I
will try to figure that one out but if you, or anyone else, knows the
solution to that I would be appreciative.

The second option still produced a collision for me just not nearly as
bad as in my original version. It also would require me to notate the
pitches an octave lower (and then raise them again in a MIDI editor to
get the sound I want).

Thanks again,
Dave Bellows

 Here's 2 options :

\language "english"

upper = { a'4 a' a' a' a' a' a' a' a' a' a' a'}

lower ={ cs''1

\ottava #1

%% here's what you're looking for

\once\override Staff.OttavaBracket.extra-offset = #'(2 . 0)

< a'' cs''' g''' >

\ottava #0

\ottava #1

% here's how I would do

\set Staff.ottavation = \markup\whiteout\concat { 8 \super\tiny "va" }

< a'' cs''' g''' >

\ottava #0

}

\score {

\new PianoStaff<<

\new Staff="upper" \upper

\new Staff="lower" \lower

>> }

Ottava collision with bar line

2013-09-05 Thread David Bellows
Hello all,

In the example below when you get to the second measure the ottava
symbol "8va" collides with the bar line. I know that typically these
symbols will be above the upper staff or below the lower staff but not
in the middle like this but for this score it is necessary. For the
time being I've replaced the "8va"s with "8"s and it works fine (no
collisions) but I'd like to learn how to fix this anyway by nudging
the "8va" symbol over.

\version "2.17.25"
\language "english"
upper = { a'4 a' a' a' a' a' a' a' }
lower ={ cs''1 \ottava #1 < a'' cs''' g''' > \ottava #0 }
\score {
\new PianoStaff<<
\new Staff="upper" \upper
\new Staff="lower" \lower
>> }

Thanks,
Dave Bellows
