Hi Dean, Not enough information here. We don't know if you were using the tupet system correctly or not. In "Speedy Entry" mode, press "opt - 3" before entering the first triplet, and the entries will continue in the same value as the first one entered. (If the first entry after selecting "opt - 3" is an 8th note, you'll get 8th note triplets.) Or, put in one eighth note and click on it with the tuplet tool and select the correct tuplet definition from the dialog box that appears. Make sure you have selected the correct values - so many whatevers in the space of so many whatever elses.
This has always worked correctly for me - over many years of experience in Finale, so I suspect that you are overlooking something.
