Hi Joram,
Two things :
1) Ottava_spanner_engraver is part of the Staff context, see :
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/internals/ottava_005fspanner_005fengraver
2) for some reason LP spanners cannot reproduce dotted lines such as the
one your looking for.
So here's a kind-of :
{
%% \override Staff.OttavaBracket.style = #'dotted-line % <= won't produce
any real dotted line
\override Staff.OttavaBracket.thickness = 1.5
\override Staff.OttavaBracket.dash-period = 0.6
\override Staff.OttavaBracket.dash-fraction = 0
\ottava 1
a''4^\markup {
\override #'(thickness . 2)
\override #'(off . 0.01)
\draw-dotted-line #'(10 . 0)
}
a'' a'' a''
\ottava 0
}
HTH,
Pierre
