> Is there a way to lower the '8' to right above the clef? In your definitions file, you could have:
clfBsUp = { \override Staff.OctavateEight #'extra-offset = #'(-0.3 . -1.2) \clef "bass^8" } In the music, you would type: \clfBsUp Adjust the extra-offset numbers to suit. This command will alter all subsequent octavated clefs throughout the piece on the one staff in which it is used. So, if you have a clef change to "treble^8", you'll need: \revert Staff.OctavateEight #'extra-offset or perhaps create a command to ensure the treble8 clef's integrity: clfTrUp = { % untested \revert Staff.OctavateEight #'extra-offset \clef "treble^8" } David -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/position-of-the-little-%278%27-in-bass-clef-tp31303344p31304454.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
