Yes, using output-scale. There's an example of its use here (for adding vertical space): http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2010-04/msg00057.html > Actually, I'd like to make a horizontal space of the value of "indent". > So it would be even better if we could "get" the value stored in > "indent" (within the \paper block) and make a hspace of this value > *automatically*. > > Could somebody help me with this? Here are a few hints to get you started. You can get the indent from the paper block using ly:output-def-lookup: (ly:output-def-lookup layout 'indent) Slot this value in a version of \hspace which takes no arguments (see the default definition in scm/define-markup-commands.scm for inspiration). Remember markups are separated by word-space, so you'll also need to subtract this from the indent.
