I’m not sure if I am using the right terminology but I can’t see how to notate this, e.g. for a pianist to shake a chord. Unfortunately searching help for shakes or rolls or tremelos becomes ambiguous. I am expecting a symbol with two or three diagonal lines through the stem. I can’t see anything in the ornaments that fits.
I am on Dorico Elements just in case that’s an issue.
Many thanks - didn’t occur to me to look there
I have to admit that when I just searched for “tremolo” in the user manual, I was surprised that
or
weren’t in the first page (on iPhone).
When I searched for tremelo nothing at all came up for me. But then I wasn’t certain it was a tremelo anyway.
Probably because it’s spelled “tremolo”.

I told you I wasn’t sure what it was called!!

Paging @Lillie_Harris to add the incorrect spelling to the metadata. (That is: based on the discussion, I presume it needs to be added if no search results were rendered for those in this thread who spelled it incorrectly—which in this case is a pretty easy mistake.)

I will consider it, but only if it seems to be a likely and reasonable misspelling. Hopefully you can understand that manually adding alternative spellings for any term used in Dorico is not something I intend on doing with my time, when third-party search engines with vast resources dedicated solely to interpreting search terms already exist.

In my defence I offer you Brian Poole and The Tremeloes best known perhaps for their 1960s hit Silence Is Golden
