Hi Mark & hi Harm,

Brilliant. Just what I was looking for, and instructive in two different
ways.

Thank you both.

Trevor.

How about:

\version "2.19.17"

val = 12

\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\override InstrumentName.after-line-breaking =
#(lambda (grob)
  (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'long-text
(markup
  #:box ;; only for debugging, delete me
  #:hcenter-in val
  (ly:grob-property grob 'long-text
}
}

   \new Staff
   \with { instrumentName = "Percussion" }
   { c''1 }
   \new Staff
   \with { instrumentName = "Violin" }
   { d''1 }


HTH,

Just write #foo. Or even #(+ foo 3), #(/ foo 2.735),

Variables in instrumentName markup?

2015-03-28 Thread Trevor Bača 
Hi,

Is there a way to do ...

   foo = #12
   \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = \markup { \hcenter-in \foo Percussion }
   } { ... }
   \new Staff \with {
  instrumentName = \markup { \hcenter-in \foo Violin }
   } { ... }

... or equivalent?

(The motivation being to use the same amount of horizontal space in a
couple of dozen different instrument names.)

Trevor.
