Hi,
One thing you may not be aware of is that when you reply
to an existing thread, the reply appears in the same thread
for others, even if you change the title. I saw your message
under "Box around MeasureCounter". It is better to start
a new topic instead.

Hi,
I'm trying to get a red dot placed before each note. I have tried
using \tweak and
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
\finger \markup \with-color "#FF0000" "."
But nothing seems to give the desired results.
The below image is what I'm trying to get.
\version "2.22.0" \include "english.ly" \header { tagline = "" }
\score {\new Staff \with {\remove "Time_signature_engraver" } {\set
Staff.midiInstrument = #"Acoustic Grand Piano" \key c \major \time 5/1
\clef treble c'1 d' e' f' g' \bar "||"} \layout { } \midi { \tempo 4 =
168}}
Thanks for all the help,
This works for me:
\version "2.22.1"
{
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
<c'\finger \markup \with-color "#FF0000" ".">
}
Perhaps you forgot the chord <>? It is necessary to be
able to use fingeringOrientations (see
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/notation/inside-the-staff#fingering-instructions).
I'd adjust the formatting a bit and use a real dot sign:
\version "2.22.1"
{
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
<c'\finger \markup \with-color "#FF0000" \fontsize #5 \musicglyph
"dots.dot">
}
Best,
Jean
