two-note tremolo in which each note is itself a one-note tremolo?

(MuseScore 3.6.2)

I'm trying to transcribe this score:

The eighth-note tremolos work fine, with the oddity that you select "eighth through stem" to make them even though they become sixteenth notes.

But the half-note tremolos don't seem to be doable. If I apply a two-note tremolo, the one-note tremolo markings disappear, and vice versa. The intention seems straightforward, and I can certainly key in GF GF GF GF in raw eighth-note single-note tremolos. But I can't help feeling that's going to be a much fatter measure than the GF GF in the paper score.

Is there a way to enter this score as written?


Comments

One way would be to add the single-note tremolo from the Symbols palette (press "Z" to display) rather than as actual tremolo. Maybe someone else can think of a better way.

In reply to by collapsinghrung

The ones in the Symbols palette comes from Bravura font by default, because that's the only complete/full set. I think "real" ones are drawn as short beams rather than using the symbol, but in any case, it wouldn't be in Bravura unless that is the font you are using (Format / Style / Score).

If the discrepancy is bothersome, you could always use the image capture tool take grab a picture of the current tremolo then paste that instead.
