Dear community,
I have a last question.
Why is the shortInstrumentName for Violin one solo not shown?
Here the snippet:
\version "2.12.2"
 violineA = \context Staff ="ViolineA"
 { \set Staff.instrumentName = "Violine 1"
  \set Staff.shortInstrumentName="Vlne.1"

   
   c'' 4 d'' e'' f'' g'' a'' b'' c'''\break 
 <<
   \new Staff \with { alignAboveContext = "ViolineA" } 
   { \set Staff.shortInstrumentName="Vlne. 1 solo" %why is this not shown?
     c'''4^"solo"( d''' e''' f''' g''' a''' b''' c'''') }
   { c'' 4 d'' e'' f'' g'' a'' b'' c''' } >>
 }
 violineB = \context Staff ="ViolineB" 
 { \set Staff.instrumentName = "Violine 2" 
   \set Staff.shortInstrumentName="Vlne. 2"
   \repeat "unfold" 2 { c'' 4 b' a' g' f' e' d' c' }}
\score {
 \new StaffGroup <<
 \new GrandStaff \violineA
  \violineB >>

}

I answer this email for the record.

It seems that there's an attempt to explain this better in the
2.13 manual than in the 2.12 manual, see
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/Context-layout-order#Context-layout-order
and
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/Aligning-contexts#Aligning-contexts,
but it still doesn't really answer your question.

There's a little more in
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/Context-layout-order#Context-layout-order
but even this is not quite complete.
