Hi Jerry,
Is there a way to change the color of Lyrics? The documentation tells how to
change the color of almost everything except Lyrics. I have a 5-verse song that
I want to change the color on verse 3 (to help singers keep their place). How
is this done?
Probably easiest way is to issue
\override LyricText.color = #red
This may be done inside the lyrics themselves, or in a \with block:
\new Lyrics \with { \override LyricText.color = #red } ......
or
\addlyrics \with { \override LyricText.color = #red } .......
in a recent LilyPond version, you may even write = red instead of = #red.
Note that lyrics are made up not only of LyricText grobs, but also of
LyricHyphen's, LyricExtender's etc., whose color has to be overriden
separately as far as I know.
