Automatic Boomwhacker color
Hi!
Would it be possible to add automatically coloured noteheads as one of the available notehead schemes? I know about and use A LOT the color notes plugin, but it would make for a much better workflow if this was automatic.
ALSO: any chances of boomwhacker-coloring the piano...
Would be EXTREMELY useful for us corona-digital primary teachers :)
Cheers

...hopefully RGB matching the colors used in Song Maker:

Musescore + SongMaker for teaching composition and theory to kids is really great, BTW!
That's the exact purpose of the 'Color Notes' plugin, see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/plugins#color-notes. Should work on Piano too, or are you saying that is does not?
It indeed is not automated though, but IIRC automating such things with/for plugins is possible now, not sure how that's done though.

What is "IIRC automating "?
And no, color-note plugin does not work on the piano. I am referring to the piano Keyboard that appears when you press P.

By "automatic", I meant instantaneous. The same way there is not "note names" plugin, but it is a notehead scheme, and the note names adapt automatically (instantaneously) when you change pitch. Would be nice with same thing for color.

As mentioned, it should be possible nowadays to get the plugin to do this automatically and keep those colors up-to-date.
I'm just not sure how that works.

It sounds like it should be feasible to implement this, hopefully someone will do that. AND hopefully there will be a solution that allows this to be combined with note name, so that one has different possibilities:
- normal notes
- normal notes with note names, no color
- normal notes with color
- note names + color
etc....

If I Remember Correctly
Ah, piano keyboard, not piano notes, OK, that indeed is not something the plugin could do
