I bought FinaleSongwriter about a month ago, and it's been working great. But I can't seem to figure out how to make tremolos work with two notes (the only tremolo I can use is the one that repeats the same note).

Any suggestions?

I think this is another one of those cases where you need two versions of your score: one, with all the notes of your tremolo written out, and another with the articulation for print. The full Finale has a plug-in to do it, but that's not available in SW, nor will any of the other workarounds.

Okay, thanks for your help. I'll probably just put it in between the notes for when I print it out, since I'll know what it means anyway.
