Re: right and left-align

[andrea valle]

Thanks as usual Mats,
I took a look at docs, and I updated (?) names.
This doesn't work on 2.7.27

 \context {
\Score
\override InstrumentName #'self-alignment-X = #right
\override InstrumentName #'X-offset = 
#`(Self_alignment_interface::aligned_on_self)
}

warning: type check for `X-offset' failed; value 
`(Self_alignment_interface::aligned_on_self)' must be of type `number'
