Ted,
The first note value you enter defines the length of the triplet. If
the first note you enter is a quarter note, Finale assumes you want 3
quarters in the space of 2 quarters. How is it supposed to know you
actually want a quarter-eighth triplet (i.e., three eighths in the
space of two eighths)? You have to tell Finale what you want, by
entering an eighth note first, to initiate the 3-eighths-in-the-space-
of-2 triplet. Once you've done that, you can go back change that
first eighth to a quarter, and then finish the triplet with an eighth.
Cheers,
- Darcy

Greetings all,
I'm using FIN 07 on an XP system. I have used Finale for years.
I'm stumped. I need to create an eighth note tuplet with the first
note being a quarter and the second an eighth. I can make it with
the first note an eighth and the second note a quarter but not the
other way. I just can't seem to figure it out. Thanks for any help.
