Hi everybody!
I'm new to this list, though I have been using and hugely appreciating
Lilypond for many years now. I am writing a book of little pieces for
violin beginners, free to use and copy of course :-) I'll set up a
website for it in the next months.
I am now blocked by what I consider a Lilypond limitation, but maybe I
just couldn't figure out how to do what I want. I'd like to have my
little pieces in one big pdf file. The problem is: I need different
staff sizes for different pieces and "chapters" of the book.
#(set-global-staff-size 14) does only work for books, but not for
\bookparts!
Using layout-set-staff-size makes only the font bigger (if I'm right),
but not the lines, so that following solution does not work:
\score{
\relative c' { c4 d e f g1 }
\layout {
#(layout-set-staff-size 15)
}
}
\score{
\relative c' { c4 d e f g1 }
\layout {
#(layout-set-staff-size 30)
}
}
According to Google, this seems to be a wide-known problem.
Is there any trick or tweak to scale the staves and lines to
layout-set-staff-size? Or any other way to have different staff sizes in
one document with Lilypond?
Does this bug report shows that there is no hope?

Is an ugly trick excluded, a way to go around the problem?
Thank you for your time, greetings from Nürnberg, Germany,
Johannes
