In a score that I am preparing I have used the following command to change the color of the LyricText element:
\override Lyrics.LyricText.color = #grey I noticed that the hyphens in the LyricText were still black. It occurred to me that maybe the color of the hyphens has to be set separately. I started typing '\override Lyrics.Hyphen.color' but Frescobaldi's syntax highlighting didn't process that, so I skipped trying to compilie that, and I tried: \override Lyrics.LyricText.LyricHyphen.color = #grey Frescobaldi syntax highlighting did process that, and sure enough that command was accepted by the Lilypond score compiler. Yay! (And hurray for Frescobaldi!) My question is out of sheer curiosity: How did this situation come about? Surely the hyphens in the lyrics are part of the LyricText. Why is the color of the hyphens a separate override?
