Color Palette

Using colors can be useful in many ways.

Probably especially in the teaching material. Or maybe just for decoration.

Take a look at the examples on the right.

Predefined Colors

There are nine predefined colors, consisting of three base colors—red, green, and blue—each available in three different shades.

You apply them by writing p1-p9.

red colors: p1,p4,p7
green colors: p2,p5,p8
blue colors: p3,p6,p9

Apply Once

Use a lowercase p(1-9) if you only want to change the color for the next chord.

Apply Permanently

Use an uppercase P(1-9) if the new color should stay active until the next palette command.

Custom Colors

Want your own colors? Just define them using hex color codes.

Use a hexadecimal color code

E.g. P1 #f53497

Use CSS color names

E.g. P1 yellowgreen.

See the available CSS color names.

Reset to Default Color

Want to go back to the original color? Just use P0.

In most cases, this means black — unless you’ve set your own custom foreground color.

Disable All Palette Colors

There is a setting to toggle on/off the use of palette colors.
You find it under page settings.

You can disable the color palette to generate a black-and-white version of your chart without needing to remove all the individual palette commands.
