Hello everyone, Resurrecting an old thread. I've been trying my hand in Scheme programming, via small examples on the project I'm working on. I wanted to extend the variable list to this function Harm wrote, to take an extra boolean variable, which is pretty trivial. The boolean is meant to chang

Lukas, Hi Michael, I think, going by this description, that maybe an InstrumentName is actually the simplest solution. In order to right-align the instrument names, try the attached diff (using git apply). It's basically a matter of - adding an \override InstrumentName.self-alignment-X =
