I assume that some scores are meant to have a smaller staff size than others, hence the need for a separate multiplier. Say score A has "design size" ("natural size"? whatever) of 16 and should be scaled up to 1.25*16 = 20, while score B with a smaller piece has "design size" of 20 and should be scaled up by the same factor to 1.25*20 = 24.
Anyway, regardless of the use case, the following piece of code should do it:
#(define design-staff-size 16) #(define staff-size-multiplier 1.25) #(set-global-staff-size (* design-staff-size staff-size-multiplier))The "(* variable multiplier)" part is Scheme syntax for "apply the multiplication function to design-staff-size and staff-size-multiplier". The definitions of the two variables can be anywhere before the call to set-global-staff-size, including includes. IIUC, this is what you want to achieve?
