Hi Richard,
I looked at Tremolo as I have used it with Mandolin music. I
thought it might be possible to
just thought you ought to know

Usually I see this as two semi-breve notes on the staff with three lines between them. Not beaming and not joining to either note. Quite often seen as written for a left hand octave spread and rolled quickly between the thumb and little finger. I can find no reference to this type of notation within the manual whatever.The manual doesn't have the detailed information about all the commands that are present, unfortunately. It *does* however describe the Command Center which is the place where you can answer this question. If you type Tremolo into the Command Center search box you will find several commands to do with the various sorts of tremolo notation. (Use the -> button to search onward for further commands after you have the first one).your assistance will be appreciated as I cannot finish the score I am working on without. Is there a way to line up a verse with the correct notes after playing a piano introduction?Yes. I think what you need to do is select the introduction (the notes show with a yellow background) and then choose the command Lyrics->Skip Lyrics in Selection - this will insert the needed "skips".For instance if I have a three bar introduction before the vocal starts, can I do this without forcing the alignment with the use of spaces and hyphens?The above command uses neater LilyPond syntax to do the skipping e.g. \repeat unfold 4 \skip 1 is the LilyPond syntax it inserts into the lyrics to skip four syllables.Also how do I write for a second voice in the same verse, for instance echoing phrases from the first voice in parts of the work?I'm not at all sure I understand this question - are you talking about lyrics here or notes (the second case might be keyboard polyphony - using several voices on one staff)?Last question for the moment, I have a trill which I want to extend for a second note, like a crotchet and quaver combination not tied. Using the trill on the menu's that I have found it only covers the first note, is there a way to extend it over the two notes?yes, again the Command Center search puts you on the Start Trill and Stop Trill commands after the three other trill commands. Command: Start Trill Starts a spanning trill from the note at the cursor. Location: Object Menu ▶ Directives ▶ Markings ▶ Spanning Internal Name: StartTrillSpanI did previously write to Richard Shann and though he answered me he advised using the forumI think you may have misunderstood - I will have meant to point you to this mailing list, which thankfully you have found - if you subscribe to the list (see Community page on denemo.org) you will be able to send emails without them being delayed for moderation and see any other questions that people may ask. Best wishes, Richard Shann
