Thanks.
The code you sent applies \ottava #1 to the whole score, whereas I also have instances of 8vb and 15va etc. All I need is a way to change the property to print only 8 or 15 without va, vb etc. to save me typing \set Staff.ottavation = #"8" each time.
Thanks,
Peter

\score { \new Staff {
 {
{
  \ottava #1
  %\set Staff.ottavation = #"8"
  c''1
  \ottava #-1
  %\set Staff.ottavation = #"8"
  c,1
}

}}
\layout {
  \context { 
    % \Score ottavation=#"8" % this does not work
} }}

Thanks for your reply, James. My question wasn't very clear - there are numerous instances of ottava passages in the score, but not the whole score so \clef "treble_8" is not suitable. It's not the ottava instruction as such I want to use in the \layout { } but the format, i.e. just an "8" instead of "8va".
Regards,
Peter

Can't you just use

\clef "treble_8" in your score

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/displaying-pitches#clef

Instead of using a \layout { } construct?

james
\score { \new Staff {
\relative c'' {
a b c d
}}
\layout { \context { \Score ottavation=#"8" } }}

Cheers,
MS
