The font size of notation elements may be altered.  It does not
change the size of variable symbols, such as beams or slurs.

@cindex font size scaling

Internally, this sets the @code{fontSize} property.  This in turns
causes the @code{font-size} property to be set in all layout
objects.  The value of @code{font-size} is a number indicating the
size relative to the standard size for the current staff height.
Each step up is an increase of approximately 12% of the font size.
Six steps is exactly a factor two.  The Scheme function
@code{magstep} converts a @code{font-size} number to a scaling
factor.  The @code{font-size} property can also be set directly,
so that only certain layout objects are affected.

@lilypond[quote,fragment,relative=2,verbatim,ragged-right]

c4.-> d8---3
\override NoteHead #'font-size = #-4

\override Stem #'font-size = #-5
c4.-> d8---3
@end lilypond

@cindex standard font size
@cindex font size, standard

Font size changes are achieved by scaling the design size that is
closest to the desired size.  The standard font size (for
@code{font-size} equals 0), depends on the standard staff height.
For a 20pt staff, a 10pt font is selected.

The @code{font-size} property can only be set on layout objects
that use fonts.  These are the ones supporting the
@code{font-interface} layout interface.

Individual objects may be assigned colors.  You may use the color
names listed in the @ref{List of colors}.

d
\override Stem #'color = #blue
e
@end lilypond

@cindex x11-color

The full range of colors defined for X11 can be accessed by using
the Scheme function @code{x11-color}.  The function takes one
argument; this can be a symbol in the form @var{'FooBar} or a
string in the form @var{"FooBar"}.  The first form is quicker to
write and is more efficient.  However, using the second form it is
possible to access X11 colors by the multi-word form of its name.

If @code{x11-color} cannot make sense of the parameter then the
color returned defaults to black. 

@lilypond[quote,ragged-right,verbatim,fragment,relative=2]
\override Staff.StaffSymbol #'color = #(x11-color 'SlateBlue2)
\set Staff.instrumentName = \markup {
  \with-color #(x11-color 'navy) "Clarinet"
}

\override Beam #'color = #(x11-color "medium turquoise")

\override Accidental #'color = #(x11-color 'DarkRed)

gis a
% this is deliberate nonsense; note that the stems remain black
\override Stem #'color = #(x11-color 'Boggle)

@end lilypond

You can get exact RGB colors by specifying the rgb-color number.

@lilypond[quote,ragged-right,verbatim,fragment,relative=2]
\override Staff.StaffSymbol #'color = #(x11-color 'SlateBlue2)
\set Staff.instrumentName = \markup {

@knownissues
An x11 color is not necessarily exactly the same shade as a
similarly named normal color.  

Not all x11 colors are distinguishable in a web browser i.e. a web browser
might not display a difference between 'LimeGreen and 'ForestGreen.  For 
web use normal colors are recommended (i.e. #blue, #green, #red).


Notes in a chord cannot be colored with @code{\override}; use
@code{\tweak} instead, see @ref{Objects connected to the input}.

@cindex ghost notes

Objects may be parenthesized by prefixing @code{\parenthesize} to

note.

@node Balloon help
@unnumberedsubsubsec Balloon help

Elements of notation can be marked and named with the help of a
square balloon.  The primary purpose of this feature is to explain
notation.

@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right,relative=2]
\new Voice \with { \consists "Balloon_engraver" }
{
  \balloonGrobText #'Stem #'(3 . 4) \markup { "I'm a Stem" }

  r
  <c, g'-\balloonText #'(-2 . -2) \markup { "I'm a note head" } c>2. 
}
@end lilypond

There are two music functions, @code{balloonGrobText} and
@code{balloonText};  The former is used like @code{\once \override} to 
attach text to any grob, and the latter is used like @code{ \tweak}, 
typically within chords, to attach text to an individual note.
