piano 'ohh yeaaaas'
I'm not sure what it is called but I am writing a boogie piano piece and I want it to end up with two long chords but on a real piano you would sort of wiggle your hands so they notes got played load of times a second. I guess I could achieve the same thing just filling a bar with hemi-semi quavers (or faster) but I expect there is a better way.

Use a tremolo?

Thanks, i did try that but it just sounds like a machine gun (and hemi-semi quavers would no doubt sound the same. If you just look at the last bar you will see the problem

Then use a 2- or 3-stroke tremolo
And update, that scpore stems from 3.0.5, latest version is 3.6.2

on a proper piano you would sort of roll your hands to make like multiple arpegios, if that makes sense

Expanding on the handbook:
You want the tremolo to fill the duration of a half note, so start by entering two quarter note chords - eg. Bflat D for chord 1 and EG for chord 2.
It's a chord so select any note from the first chord
Click on one of the two note tremolo symbols in the tremolo pallet

if you move forward 30 seconds you will see what i mean (hopefully hehe)
You could try the two-note tremolo
