Hi!
I am looking for a way to change the size and the inter beaming distance of tremolo so that it looks a bit clearer from further away without changing the note size!
Is there a way to change this?
To change the thickness of the beams and the separation between them:
- In Write mode, select all the notes in that bar (click in between them and that should select them all in one go)
- Go into Engrave mode
- Open the Properties panel (lower zone)
- In the Beaming section, activate Thickness and Separation then adjust their values until you are happy
Also, you can drag the tremolo beams (as one unit) up or down in Engrave mode.
To change the length of the tremolo beams:
- Open Engraving Options
- In Tremolos > Multi-note Tremolos, adjust the values in one or both of Maximum length of tremolo lines for unbeamed notes and (in Advanced options) Inset tremolo lines for whole notes (semibreves).
Don’t forget to click Apply.
Be aware that these changes made in Engraving Options are project-wide, so they will affect all multi-note tremolos. If the bars containing multi-note tremolos are of greatly differing widths, you might find that you will need to make some adjustments of the bar widths.

Here is a very exaggerated example of changing the thickness and the separation of the beams in the tremolo.
