Hi Paul, How about: \version "2.20.0"
customFingering = { \override Fingering.font-name = "Arial Black" \override Fingering.font-size = #-1 \override Fingering.color = #(x11-color "DarkRed") } cust = -\tweak font-name #"Arial Black" -\tweak font-size #-2 -\tweak color #(x11-color "DarkRed") \etc tune = \relative { %\customFingering c'4 d-2 e\3 % <= optional \cust-\markup\circle "3" g-5 %-\markup {\center-align \draw-circle #1 #.5 ##f } } \score { << \time 4/4 \new Staff \tune >> \layout { \context { \Score \override Fingering.font-name = "Arial Black" \override Fingering.font-size = #-1 \override Fingering.color = #(x11-color "DarkRed") %Optional: \override StringNumber.font-name = "Arial Black" \override StringNumber.font-size = #-2 \override StringNumber.color = #(x11-color "DarkRed") } } } Of course, you could also define a markup function to get a shortcut for the circled fingering...
