It would have been handy if you had supplied a small example of what
it is you tried exactly.
The OttavaBracket lives at Staff level; you do not want more than one
bracket per staff.
You can find this out very easily, by entering: ottava in the search
box on lilypond.org.
Going to the first result, you read:
OttavaBracket objects are created by: *Ottava_spanner_engraver*
and clicking on Ottava_spanner_engraver tells you:
Ottava_spanner_engraver is part of contexts:
GregorianTranscriptionStaff, Staff, TabStaff and VaticanaStaff
So, have you tried:
\paper { raggedright = ##t}
\score {
\notes \relative c''' {
a b c a
#(set-octavation 1)
a b c a
#(set-octavation 0)
a b c a
\override Staff.OttavaBracket #'padding = #10
#(set-octavation 1)
a b c a
}
}
Jan.
