[jmsl] change color of Note / acceidental / ledger lines / etc.?

[jmsl at music.columbia.edu]

Hi all,

I'm trying to change the color of a Notehead on a JMSL score, and I  
can't find a reasonable way to make it happen.

Here's the hack I've made:
* I override the render method in the Note class so that the note  
doesn't get rendered by JMSL.
* I manually render the note onto the score image.

Here is the problem with this hack:
* The accidentals and ledger lines are still drawn in black.
* It therefore looks ugly and is difficult to read.

I could, of course, not create a Note object at all and manually draw  
the notehead, ledger lines, and accidentals. But at that point, I'd  
basically be reimplimenting all of the JMSL JScore rendering myself,  
which I really hope not to do.

I tried one other solution, but it didn't work:
* I override the render method in the Note class.
* render calls g.setColor(color) and then calls the super.render.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Best,
