Please always tell what LilyPond version you use!
I assume that you use version 2.8.
It turns out that these instructions in the manual are
obsolete. Instead, you could do
\override InstrumentName #'padding = #2.0
in the Score context to get the same effect.
I'll update the documentation.

When using instrument names for staffs in a StaffGroup, the name is printed too
close to the bar. I tried putting \override InstrumentName #'space-alist =
#'((left-edge extra-space . 2.0)) in a Score context in the layout block as
suggested by the docs but it didn't change anything.
Cheers,

I cannot get something like
\set Staff.instrument = "Violoncello-baroque-longissimo"
to print at all with 2.5.23. It prints with 2.4.5 but the length
of lines are cut on the right margin, and the long-long-name is
still cut on the left side.
One possible solution is to split

hi,
2.7.2 will have a \paper variable horizontaloffset, which shifts the

Would it be easy enough to extend that to alternating offs

Alternative: you can try

Greetings,
I'm using 2.4.5-1 on FC3 (the CCRMA package).
I've noticed that the horizontal alignment of an entire line seems to be
done completely independantly of the short instrument names. It seems
as though the musical line stretches from margin to margin and the
instrument names get shov
