Hi Thomas,

If this behaviour is intended, you are absolutely right in changing Staff.Clef #'color (or did I miss something?). If you want ONLY the clef changes to be colored, you could just try something like: \once \override Staff.Clef.color = #blue \clef tenor Thomas Schuch wrote > Is there any way "\colorMusic #red {c <<{c} \\ {c}>> c}" works for the > entire area? The construction with the double backslash creates two new voices - one above and one below. So you are dealing with three voices, each of them needing \colA: % ----------------------------------- \new Staff \relative c'' \repeat unfold 5{ \colA {a b c d << \colA {a c b} \\ \colA {a b c} >> a b c } } % ----------------------------------- If you add the lower voice for the polyphonic section "manually", the upper voice simply continues. But I don't think this makes things much easier: % ----------------------------------- \new Staff \relative c'' \repeat unfold 5{ \colA { % only once because this voice is continuous a b c d << {\voiceOne a c b} \new Voice \colA % \colA must also be applied to the NEW voice {\voiceTwo a b c} >> \oneVoice a b c } } % ----------------------------------- A side effect: As the upper voice is now continuous, the beams are no more interrupted, which leads to some strange results. However, in a real-world example (without repeating 5 times on different timing positions) you could easily affect the stem direction with \voiceOne or \voiceTwo. Hope this helps a bit, Klaus -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Fw-Re-2-coloring-voices-vs-systemStartDelimiterHierarchy-tp177656p177693.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
