I stupidly added tremolos to my whole work without noticing and have now done several days' worth of writing.

How can I remove the tremolos without re-writing the entire piece? It seems short-sighted to enable such a large change without the means to remove it. (Yes, I know I could have done CTRL-Z if I had realised earlier)!

Any help would be appreciated.

You could use the Edit Filter for articulations, but of course that would mean that you would clear ALL articulations.

Are we talking about Articulation tremolos or those created with the TGTools plugin? If the Plugin type, try Retranscribe. Some things get removed with that, but you might find it the easiest way.

Doesn't the plug-in have a "remove" option?

I use the Lite version. That may be an option in the Full version.

Thank you for your suggestions - yes it was the Plug-in TG Tools version of Tremolos between different notes.
I will give it a go.

I will leave tearing my hair out for the moment!
