Thanks, I'll look better into this ...

I thought I had an idea to use \hspace in a \markup.
With a single staff only for the markups it works (i.e. if you comment
the \music line out of the following example).
But it doesn't work because obviously the \textLengthOn in the 'spacing'
variable also affects the 'music'.

Urs


spacing = {
  \textLengthOn
  s1^\markup { | \hspace #15 | } 
  s1^\markup { \hspace #15 | } 
  s1^\markup { \hspace #15 | } 
  s1^\markup { \hspace #25 | } 
}

music = {
  \repeat unfold 16 c'4
}

\score {
  <<
    \new Dynamics \spacing
    \new Staff \music
  >>
}
