Octavabassa notation

[address@hidden]

Hi,

I'm just getting into lilypond, and need to know more about octavia
notation.

The command
#(set-octavation 1) ... #(set-octavation 0)

gives the 8va---- bracket on top of the notes, as

  8va--,
     |
    o|

Is there any way to get this to print under the notes so that it means
octavia bassa, as in

    |
   o|
8va---'

I know the command #(set-octavation -1) ... gives the 8va bassa
notation, but it is still printed on top of the note. I want it printed
under the note.

Hope this is clear enough.
