Consider this:
\relative c {
#(set-octavation -1)
c1\p( | f1) |
}
\paper {
ragged-right = ##t
}
As shown in the attached image, the octavation is below the piano
sign. IMHO the opposite should be the default.
I have to admit, I didn't choose the defaults with a great deal of care. The defaults are in define-grobs.scm; feel free to suggest a better order.
In this case, you can just flip them by prepending
\override DynamicLineSpanner #'outside-staff-priority = 1000
Generally I fear that we need more fine-grained tuning possibilities
for grobs than the current object classes (well, this is an assumption
currently, but...).
I'm not sure I understand. In which way should it be more fine-grained? If the outside-staff-priority should depend on some property of the grob other than its type, you can always just set it to a callback function.
BTW, I would like to change the default naming from `8va bassa' to
`8ba' since it's shorter. Objections?
I seem to recall (although I don't have a reference) that '8vb' is a common abbreviation
