Hi Bernhard,
specifically for that I recommend manually increasing the indentation (\indent
for the full name, \short-indent for the short name). I once made a very rough
but serviceable workaround to make this a little bit more automatic. You need
to manually give it the longest instrument name and staff size. It works with
several if not all staff sizes:
\version "2.22.1" size = 20 #(set-global-staff-size size)
instruName = "this is a really really long instrument name" shortInstruName =
"tiarrlin" \score { \new Staff \with { instrumentName = \instruName
shortInstrumentName = \shortInstruName }{ c'1\break c }
\layout { indent = #(* (string-length instruName) (* size 0.25) pt)
short-indent = #(* (string-length shortInstruName) (* size 0.225) pt) } }
Martín.
