In Lilypond I can change the color of one type of object with a line like
override Staff.Clef # color = #(rgb-color 0.4 0.5 0.6)
I d like to have everything in the same (non-default) color, but I neither found a list of all the objects I could color nor did I find a command to change all the colors at once. Could anybody please point me to either?
The LilyPond Snippet Repository has a solution that iterates through the list of objects contained in all-grob-descriptions:
#(define (override-color-for-all-grobs color)
(lambda (context)
(let loop ((x all-grob-descriptions))
(if (not (null? x))
(let ((grob-name (caar x)))
(ly:context-pushpop-property context grob-name color color)
(loop (cdr x)))))))
% Example of usage:
elative c {
applyContext #(override-color-for-all-grobs (x11-color blue))
c4pp< d e f
grace { g16[( a g fis]) } g1ff!
}
Note that this will change the color of every graphical object only if you run it in the proper context (Score, I think, will generally suffice), so you may need to do the following if you re in the middle of, say, a Voice context:
stopStaff
context Score
applyContext #(override-color-for-all-grobs (x11-color blue))
startStaff
The list of graphical objects you need is at the bottom of this page. So a simple albeit tedious approach would be to iterate through all those objects you use, e.g.
override Staff.Clef # color = #(rgb-color 0.4 0.5 0.6)
override Staff.NoteHead # color = #(rgb-color 0.4 0.5 0.6)
override Staff.Beam # color = #(rgb-color 0.4 0.5 0.6)
override Staff.Slur # color = #(rgb-color 0.4 0.5 0.6)
etc.
There s probably a much better way but I can t figure it out. Alternatively, as has been suggested before you could consider doing some post-processing on the output from Lilypond, which may be simpler depending on the tools you have available.
I strongly recommend that you read the excellent documentation, in particular how to navigate the Internals Reference as covered by the Learning Manual and the Notation Reference
Also you may obtain a better answer from the lilypond-user mailing list.
