Ah, I see.

That did the trick and now it works, thanks!
\version “2.19.22”
myfunc =
#(define-music-function () ()
#{
\context Staff
\applyContext
#(lambda (context)
;; access context properties and pick a property setting based on
them...
(ly:context-pushpop-property context 'StaffSymbol 'color green))
\stopStaff
\startStaff
#})
{
c'
% now it works!
\context Staff
\applyContext
#(lambda (context)
;; access context properties and pick a property setting based on them...
(ly:context-pushpop-property context 'StaffSymbol 'color red))
\stopStaff \startStaff
c'
% and you can put it in a music function
\myfunc
c'
}

Um, never mind that, it was just my clumsy attempt to try to use \override
Staff.StaffSymbol... to set the grob property when I couldn’t get
ly:context-pushpop-property to work.
Thanks again, I really appreciate your help. No telling how long or if I would
have ever figured that out on my own.
