Hi ... I used the 2nd option ... put in the one eighth note, clicked
on it with the tuplet tool and chose the correct definition. the
values were correct, and worked perfectly for the first 3 bts. Why
not the fourth, I wonder?

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.

Ok, this I truly don't understand. Today I was just playing around,
seeing how two against three would sound. So, I set up the Piano
staves in GPO (Steinway Grand) and tried to write a measure or two of
8th note triplets in the bass clef in Common Time using the triplet
tool. The first 3 beats were no prob. When I got to the 4th beat, it
would accept the first two notes of the triplet, but not the third.
It would allow another 16th rest or note, but not an eighth of
either. Anyone know what this is all about? This is MacFin 2006b.
