Re: [Finale] Mastering Triplets_Editing

[Christopher Smith]

Do you have Bracket Unbeamed Notes Only checked in Document options>tuplets? This oddly-named option (formerly Auto Bracket (huh?)) means that a bracket appears ONLY when there isn't a beam over the entire tuplet, like quarter-note triplets, or a group of three eights where the first one is a rest. Uncheck it, and all tuplets created from now on should have brackets. I'm not sure how to apply this retroactively, however, to previously-created tuplets.

I'm editing Smartscore scans. Importing these always needs some finessing. My last query yielded help with page layout. My current problem is triplets in piano music. They come into Finale without brackets or slurs. I'm understanding about the Document and Tuplet Tool Options dialog mainly acting on future triplets. I'm now to where I delete the Smartscore triplet and try to re-enter a triplet using the dialog options. I can see the slur after entering the first notes, but when I enter the last note the bracket or slur go away. Where the heck do those little blighters go?
