The intervals in the image are all going to the nearest option.  You need to 
mark some of your notes with ' in order (I presume) to convert some of the 
downward fourths into upward fifths.

 Subject:   Octave control. 




For the initiated this is a simple question but I have Been away from Lilypond 
for some time. Now when I compile a simple piece of music the control of note 
range seems to have disappeared. And I get increasing or decreasing octaves – 
see example. Previously the program remembered where the last note was and 
chose to keep within a range of 5 positions on the stave – otherwise I had to 
specify going outwith this range using a comma or ‘ .  Can you explain?I cannot 
remember how to save my music in PDF format. Previously saving the .ly file 
also saved a PDF copy.
 
All very elementary questions but I hope someone has time to answer.
 
P.S. On the plus side I am very happy to se that the export and import of XML 
music files works much better now.
