If it were me, I'd start by creating (by hand) a source

<source>
  <line/>
   ...
  <line/>
</source>

with the correct number of lines (easy enough to do), and iterate over that using David's solution, without needing the funky position() test:

<xsl:for-each select="//line">
 <line x1="{position()+15}%" yi=85%" x2="{position()+15}%" yi=15%" />
</xsl:for-each>

(Sometimes brute force is the easiest solution, especially for a one-off.)

On the other hand, you've probably already done it with one of the more general solutions already posted.

Cheers,
Wendell

so long as your source tree has at least 70 nodes,
