Hi Guy, some hints for you:
1) You should send code that actually compiles. For your example \language "english" is missing and your global definitions are unknown (and probably not necessary). http://lilypond.org/website/tiny-examples.html 2) What you want is probably: \override Staff.OttavaBracket #'style = #'none (But please be aware that this makes the notation ambiguous, because you do not know where it ends.) 3) Here is a working example: \version "2.16.0" \language "english" { \ottava #1 \override Staff.OttavaBracket #'style = #'none g''2 f''4 e'' } HTH, Joram _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
