Hello,

I am trying my 8va to be above the rest of markup (which includes a \markup and a fermata). Currently it is below the fermata and the \markup but i would like it to go above each of those items. 

Here is what causes it: 

%%%%%%%%%%

\version "2.18.2"

up = \new Staff  = "up" 

{

\ottava # 1

\tieDown

<des'' ees'''>2\fermata~-\tweak #'Y-offset #-1.0 ^\markup{\tiny\flat}~

}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Couldn't you just override the outside order? Is this what you mean?

%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"
up = \new Staff  = "up"
{
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket.outside-staff-priority = #500
\ottava # 1
\tieDown

<des'' ees'''>2\fermata~-\tweak #'Y-offset #-1.0 ^\markup{\tiny\flat}~
}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%

{ \up }
