Hello
Thanks for the reply.I'll try it..
JPierre
Here's an example: I'd like to color, for example, the background of
squares 1 and 2 blue, the background of squares 3 and 4 red, etc.
At worst, color the text..
Thank you.
\score {
\new ChordGrid \chordmode
{
\override GridChordName.Parentheses.font-size = #2
\set chordRootNamer = #chordNamer % substitution du nomage
des accords
\set chordNameExceptions = #chJazz % substitution de
l'affichage des extensions
\override GridChordName.font-size = #3
\override GridChordName.font-name = #'"lilyjazzchord"
\set chordChanges = ##t
\set noChordSymbol = "—"

\repeat percent 2 {d1:6.9}

\ChordGrid
slashChordSeparator = % is only a dividing line;
#(make-with-dimensions-markup (cons 0 0) (cons 0 0) ;; displaces
nothing

chordNoteNamer = #(lambda (p l?)
(make-lower-markup 2.0 ;; not too cramped but
still belonging graphically
(make-small-markup ;; as qualifier is subordinate to root name
(note-name->markup p l?))))
}
}

If you aretalking about a Chord Grid, I believe so, by overriding
ChordSquare.whiteout and ChordSquare.whiteout-color.
If you had provided a tiny example (https://lilypond.org/tiny-examples.html) I
would have tried it out for you before replying.
