Here are a couple of scanned examples of clefs from commercial guitar scores, showing the 8 centred under the loop of the clef, and a couple of pngs showing Lilyponds default output and the output with the X-offset hard coded to 0.7, which better matches the alignment in the commercial scores.Phil Holmes writes:"Nick Payne" <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected]...The default positioning of the small "8" under the clef symbol when using the treble_8 or G_8 clef is too far to the right. It looks better when the X-offset is about 0.7 staff units: %============ \version "2.17.10" \relative c'{ \clef "G_8" \override Staff.OctavateEight.X-offset = #0.7 c d e f } %============ NickI'd guess that this is because the centre lines of the 8 and clef line up. Do you have examples supporting your view?Nick Payne posted to the lilypond-user thread here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-01/msg00927.html commenting that there isn't a single value for X-offset that works for all ottavations.
