Hi James,
Perhaps it's just my inability to explain what I want.
I'd like to have the two systems centered on the page, regardless
of what the instrumentName is.
Ah... well, the best I can do right now is this (manual) workaround:
\version "2.12.2"
\paper { line-width = 8.5\in indent = 0 }
\layout { \context { \Staff \override InstrumentName #'X-extent =
#'(0 . 0) } }
music = \relative { a4 g a f }
\markup \fill-line { \score { \new Staff \music \layout {} } }
\markup \fill-line { \score { \new Staff \with { instrumentName =
\markup \translate #'(-16 . 0 ) "MyInstrument" } \music \layout {} } }
I tried various alignment properties/settings, but didn't find any
that solved your issue.
There's likely a way to make a Scheme function which automatically
\translate-s the text the correct amount, but I don't have time to
investigate it.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
