Re: Shift up OttavaBracket

[Paolo Prete]

As said in the first post staff-padding seems to have the same problem of Y-offset:

outside-staff-padding does the job only if reset; see:

Then I would consider this a bug. At least one property of OttavaBracket should behave like extra-offset concerning the starting offset.

Best,

Paolo

True, extra-offset is the tool for making changes to the layout after
everything else has been done.  It sounded like that was what you were
asking about.

Not that I can see.  But it seems like Y-offset might not be the right
thing to adjust.  Perhaps staff-padding or outside-staff-padding are
better options.
