Color plugin - change shade of pink

• Jan 10, 2025 - 17:12

When I use the color plug-in that comes with the Boomwhacker colors, the shade of pink used is too similar to the shade of red to distinguish when printed. A lighter pink would be so appreciated!

Change the plugin code to colors that suit you better. Any text editor will do

I would like to. I have looked everywhere I could think of to access the code to do that but I cannot find it. Do you know where it is? I have a Linux computer.

Find where you dowloaded the plugin file - it will have a .qml extension. It may be in Documents/MuseScore4/Plugins or a similar directory. Open the file using a text editor. Edit the color string value (#xxxxxx) and save the file. The #values are standard and you can look them up online - bright red is #ff0000 and one shade of pink is #ff8888.
