Re: drawing a range reguardless of transposition

[Michael Käppler]

Why not put it in the underlying "input" then?

melody = {
    \override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange e' b'
   \relative c' {  c4 d e f }
}

You could even define a shortcut for this:

melodyRange = \override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange e' b'

melody = {
   \melodyRange
   \relative c' {  c4 d e f }
}
