Hello,

Thank you kieren.
the solution given by Kieren is working, but you need to
compute yourself the extra-offset each time (it depends of the number of accidentals, and
other notations of the beginning of the line), so it is not perfect.

So if there is something simpler, i take it !

Hi, all --

Wow: I just realised the implication of the issue Papazian brought up...

If you can't use

        \set Staff.instr = "whatever"

mid-stream to change the instrument name listed at the left-hand side of the system, how do you keep track of the instrument being played by doublers/triplers/etc. (e.g., when the clarinet player takes up the bass clarinet)?

I now think this is a more serious issue than it first appeared -- but maybe there's a trivial solution I don't know about? [FWIW, I tried \stopStaff \set... \startStaff, but it didn't seem to work...]

Cheers,
Kieren.
