The problem with that solution is that it changes all Scripts, including all articulations. I would suggest the somewhat hacky solution of redefining just the commands in case, like
segno = \tweak color #red \segno coda = \tweak color #red \coda But if something more elegant is required (for instance if there could be conflicting tweaks) there is a solution in this thread: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2021-09/msg00484.html HTH /Leo > 25 mars 2023 kl. 00:35 skrev Michael Werner <reznae...@gmail.com>: > > Hi Laurie, > > On Fri, Mar 24, 2023 at 7:19 PM savage.laurie <savage.lau...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think the issue might be that I am using explicit \coda and \segno commands > and your example uses the new \repeat segno form which will be too complex in > the specific big band chart I'm editing.
