Hey Jim,
To be honest, I'm not sure why the example you posted doesn't work, but
I was able to find a workaround by using \contexts to apply the override
to each staff, like so.
\version "2.20.0"
upper = \relative c'' { % remove \override
\clef treble
\key c \major
\time 4/4
a-1 cis' <e, a c e>\tuplet 3/2 {<c c'>8~<c c'> <c c'>}
}
lower = \relative c { % remove \override
\clef bass
\key c \major
\time 4/4
<<{f'1}-2\\{r4. e32-1 cis-2 a-4 f-1 d2-2}>>
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff <<
\set PianoStaff.instrumentName = #"Piano "
\new Staff = "upper" \upper
\new Staff = "lower" \lower
>>
*\layout { **
** \context {**
** \Staff**
** \override Fingering.color = #red**
** }**
** }*
\midi { }
}

Hi David, thanks, I have attached a 1-measure example that illustrates
the problem. The upper staff is showing the requested color for the
fingering. I can see now that it has to do with the <<{}\\{}>>
construct.
The override does not apply to objects within << >> apparently. Any
suggestions will be appreciated. regards, Jim
