... how I can get the "Violin" instrument name to show up next to the topmost staff?
Well, in 2009 Neil Puttock said you can't, and said why. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2009-03/msg00123.html If that still applies, you will need a workaround. The X-offset workaround suggested there seems very fragile. So here is a hack that hangs a markup on the left side of the ossia. It needs some fine tuning, but should illustrate the principle. Cheers, Robin
\version "2.19.80" addOssiaName = #(define-scheme-function (name padding) (markup? number?) #{ \override Staff.StaffSymbol.stencil = #(lambda (grob) (ly:stencil-combine-at-edge (ly:staff-symbol::print grob) X LEFT (grob-interpret-markup grob name) padding)) #}) \score { << \new Staff = "Testing" \with { instrumentName = "Top" } \relative c'' { c1 | c | c | c | } \new StaffGroup \relative c'' { \new Staff \with { instrumentName = "Bottom" } { c1 | c << { c1 | d } \new Staff \with { alignAboveContext = "Testing" } { \once \omit Staff.TimeSignature \addOssiaName "Violin" 2 c1 | b } >> } } >> }
