Can I make my notes/tabs different colors?

• Sep 11, 2020 - 16:22

I am working on making some materials for beginners, and I was thinking it would be really nice to make certain sections of the notes/tabs in different colors to emphasize different things I am teaching. I found how I can make the chords on the top of the score in different colors, but am still hunting around to see if I can color-coat the notes and/or tabs of my scores? If it is possible, can someone possibly tell me specifically how and where I can find that?

If you select a notehead you can use the same method to change its color as you did with chord symbols. If you want to change the color of all of the C#'s in a section the same you can select the section then right click a C# and choose Select>More... to only select the C#'s in the selection, staff, voice and so forth. There are lots of options in there to select only some of an item and this works with most elements (like you may want to make all of the staccatos purple, you can select only staccatos here).

Tabs have their own set of selection options as well. Check it out.
