Thanks, I've just tried this two ways without success.

First I entered the 8th triplet note, then entered a quarter-triplet to the
left of it.  Rather than a long-short grouped tuplet, I get a regular
quarter note followed by the beginning of a triplet grouping (and the cursor
shows triplets activated).  Second, I entered both pitches as
eighth-triplets, then changed the first pitch to a quarter-triplet and both
change to a regular non-triplet rhythm.  Is there a different way to do
this?
