Knute,
When I eliminated the indent ( \layout {\indent = #0} ), all of it fits on the
first line.

Subject: Ottavation text too long for next line
I have a piece where I need a fairly long ottavation text that goes from one
line to the next (it says that the ottavation applies to the right hand only).
The problem is that there is only one measure on the second line and the text
doesn't fit when it's repeated. One solution is to set \break so that the
ottavation is all on one line but this sometimes produces stretched or crowded
measures. Is there another solution?
\version "2.19.20"
\language "english"
octaveUp = {
\set Staff.ottavation = #"8va pour la main droite seulement"
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.direction = #UP
\set Voice.middleCPosition = #(- 6 5) % c''
}
octaveOff = {
\unset Staff.ottavation
\unset Voice.middleCPosition
}
\relative c' {
<<
{
s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 |
\octaveUp
\repeat unfold 4 { e4 f g a }
\octaveOff
s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 | s1 |
}
\\
{
\repeat unfold 16 { c4 d e f }
}
>>
}
