Title Not all half step notes are colored ⇒ Not all half step notes are colored after mid-score key sig change

Apparently only the initial time sig is taken into account

No, returning to my first guess: it doesn't work with transposing instruments.
Easy fix: in the .qml (and for 1.x in the .js) file just replace note.pitch() by note.ppitch() (for playback pitch()).
epitch() (for effective pitch, honororing transposition and concert pitch) is not exposed to plugins.

Hello Jojo,
Thanks for your reply.
I tried your solutions but they did not work.
I also tried to change the program with "midi" as the switch selector but the program does not appear in plugins (probably coding fault).
For now I changed the program "colornotes.qml": half steps #ff0000 and the rest #000000.
This works for me on this moment.

My knowledge of QML is not enough so I have to study it.
