Re: Coda/Segno sign color override not working: LiliyPond 2.24.0

Thanks Michael,

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. It's about 160 bars long with the segno in bar 24 and the "to coda" symbol in bar 48 and three repeated sections, I got lost in the nested braces when I tried the new structure. If I was writing it from scratch rather than re-editing it would be simpler.

Thanks

Laurie

Hi Laurie,

Hi,

I put this in my layout block

\context {

      \Score

      \override CodaMark.color = #red

      \override SegnoMark.color = #red

      \override SectionLabel.color = #red

      \override SectionLabel.font-size = #3

      \override RehearsalMark.font-size = #3

      \override RehearsalMark.color = #red

    }

The result is large red rehearsal marks and large red section labels but black segno and coda signs.

All I can figure is that something somewhere is a bit out of place. I double checked here, making sure to use the same version you mention (2.24.0) and it's working as expected. Specifically:

\version "2.24.0"
\language "english"

\layout {
  \context {
    \Score
    \override CodaMark.color = #red
    \override SegnoMark.color = #red
    \override SectionLabel.color = #red
    \override SectionLabel.font-size = #3
    \override RehearsalMark.font-size = #3
    \override RehearsalMark.color = #red
  }
}

\new Score {
  \new Staff {
    \new Voice {
      \fixed c' {
        \mark \default
        f1 f1
        \sectionLabel "A1"
        f1 f1
        \repeat segno 2 {
          g1 g1
          \alternative {
            \volta 1 { \repeat unfold 4 { a2 } }
            \volta 2 \volta #'() {
              \section
              \sectionLabel "Coda"
            }
          }
        }
        b1
        \fine
      }
    }
  }
}

is producing:

Could you post a small section of code showing how you're using everything?
