Joram Berger requested that, in line with the recommendations in Gould "Behind Bars", the final downward line of the ottava spanner should be solid, not dotted, and the line itself be aligned to the top of the ottavation text for ottavas above the stave, and to the bottom of the text for those below the stave.

    This was fixed in 2.19.14:

    Ottava Bracket bounds; issue 3690
    
    Ottava Bracket: do not dash edges; issue 3866
    

    However IMHO it would be useful to have the possibility to dash the edge if the user wants that, see the real world examples at https://notat.io/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=522
