Hi All;

   I'm using Lilypond 2.22 on a Mac.

   How to force the ottava bracket to go above the notes in a Piano piece?

   The ottava bracket is not clear when placed in between the clefs; I
suppose I could make it bold face...

   The notes are still within the treble staff.

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott

In LilyPond 2.22, you have to issue

\overrideProperty Staff.OttavaBracket.direction #DOWN

If you upgrade to LilyPond 2.23.3 (the latest development
version), you will be able to use the simple

\override Staff.OttavaBracket.direction = #DOWN

(this is so since
https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/merge_requests/762).

Example:

\version "2.23.3"

{
  \once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.direction = #UP
  \ottava -1
  c1
}

Best,
Jean
