Thank you Noel, this is exactly what I am doing, but it doesn't work.
If I follow the procedure you mention (which is also exactly what the manual
says), the tuplet tool lets me enter 5 notes (the first one included), so there
is one too short.
I am sorry for asking, but mabe you can just try this for yourself (I am doing it in simple entry, Finale07a Windows).
Just to see what would happen, I told the tuplet tool that I want seven quarter notes. Then it lets me enter six ones. When I go to the next measure, a quarter rest appears on the last beat of the previous measure, so I have 6 quarter notes (with a sign '7' above it) on three beats and a quarter rest.
Could this be a bug?
Yes, it's a bug -- I get the same result.
The better way is to turn off "check for extra notes" then enter the 6
quarter notes and THEN use the tuplet tool to define what you want.
