Don't have a physical manual and the 700+ pages of the online edition is a bit daunting. Hoped that someone might be able to help.

You don't need the printed book or the online manual - Help is built into Sibelius with the F1 key.

F1 > Ctrl+F (find) > type in Tremolo

That took all of 5 seconds! :)

Page 400 - Section 4.28 - Tremolos I can't see your attachment in anything other than postage stamp size but that section should tell you what you need to know and try out!

Thanks for this andyg,

Found the help on trems. However Sibelius only appears to deal with two note tremolandi. Mine is three notes tremolando to a single note. Sorry about the postage size pic.

Sussed it thanks all!!

Then you may have resort to some fakery, using lines etc. The trems won't play back correctly, of course, but they will look OK.
