IWBNI it were possible to specify that a given custom line should be repeated to form an array of parallel lines.

Line arrays could be used for the creating the following objects:

• Pseudo-beams over barlines. By using the tab slide tool, a custom line may be attached to two notes that are divided by a barline to form a beam. Arrays could be used for secondary beams.

 
• Tremolo slashes that are parallel to beams.

 
• Pseudo-staff lines.

This feature could be implemented by adding the following controls to the Smart Line Style dialog box:

------------------------------------
[ ] Array
    Displacement: H: ____ V: ____
    Number of Lines: ____
------------------------------------

The Displacement would be the difference between matching endpoints of any two adjacent lines in the array.
