I installed that plugin and nothing happened. Possibly it will not colour voices in the same staff (see bar 11 melody first chord)? It seems to have coloured the first note in voice 1 as orange!
If you are on MU3.6 use the attached qml (Line 229 quit must be commented out).
Your note is orange because it is in voice 3. Each staff has 4 voices. See test.mscz
The color scheme is the same as the toolbar:
Voice 1 - Blue, Voice 2 - Green, Voice 3 - Yellow, Voice 4 - Purple
Thanks so much for that. I have version 4.0.1.23... I opened test.mscz and saw the colours OK. I have now loaded the file you gave me and it seems to work strangely where in voice 1 I have many colours and voice 2 (orange but in voice 1 as well. Maybe it doesn't work in version 4 yet.
Well my desire was to have one voice one colour and voice 2 another so it doesn't work unless it is designed to make everything pretty. I gather from the replies that there is no need to 'comment out' line xxx but I'm not a programmer. So if you agree with me then I will remove the plugin and carry on without.
PS, if I try to toggle the plugin off that does not work (I thought that was a feature). So I temp removed it from the folder and had to 'not save' the file to revert otherwise I assume the colours would be 'stuck'.

No need to comment it out, in Mu3 it merly emits a warning (in the Plugin Editor's console) that can savely get ignored

Agreed, but why did the OP only get 1 note colored then?, saying 'nothing happened'. But all's well that ends well...
