Hi Richard,
For the melody, you'll obviously need to make each of the dotted
eighth-sixteenth figures a sextuplet, with a hidden eighth rest
between the dotted eighth and the sixteenth. I think Mass Copy might
make it easier to hide the rests all in one go, but you should ask
Robert about that.
Cheers,
- Darcy

Thanks, Darcy. That helps with part of it. It's the alignment of the
sixteenths in the melody that is the biggest obstacle.

You are on Fin2008, yes?
Enter the accompaniment entirely in the bottom staff. (You
can use Robert's Mass Copy plugin to do all the triplets, or
just do them normally and use Utilities -> Change -> Tuplest
to hide them).
Then select the notes from the bottom staff that you want to
appear in the top staff and hit opt-up arrow. No need to hide
any rests, Finale will do that for you automatically.

Any suggestions for entering this texture without resorting to
manually tweaking those sixteenths in the melody? It would
be a real
drag (and a lot of it) to do it that way, not to mention
the triplets
and hidden rests in the bass across two staffs.
