If you are using speedy entry (you didn't say), try this: hit
"option" and the number 3 and enter the first note as an eighth note
triplet, then put the cursor back on that note and change it to a
quarter note. Finale assumes that the first note value you choose is
the value of the triplet notes. I can't see how it could be done
another way, since Finale is good but can't read your mind, so this
is a pretty good method.

Hey, Everyone...
I'm working on a song and am trying to create a set of 8th note
triplets
with the first note of the 3 being a quarter note followed by an
8th note.
In other places in the same piece it let me do this. For some
reason, it
won't let me do it here and I can't figure out why! It lets me put
an 8th
note followed by an 8th rest and an 8th note - but it won't let me
make the
first note a quarter note... Any clues?!
Thanks!
