Don, You should be able to return your tuplets to default settings en-masse by selecting a range then using Utilities->Change->Tuplets. If you hit the Reset button at the bottom, it will fill in the default tuplet settings.
For some reason every version of Finale since the beginning has has forced Tuplets to be tied to Notes in the Edit filter. This arbitrary restriction was the original reason I created the first version of my Mass Copy plugin (then called "Tuplet Copy" or some such). You can use Mass Copy to copy tuplets and tuplet settings without copying the notes. I tried opening one of my files from the 90-91 era, and it does not report the version. The suggests to me that it might be from before v2. Ideally your file would have been upgraded to 2.6.3 before being brought into the modern world, Robert On Tue, Jan 27, 2015 at 8:18 AM, Don Hart <donhartmu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > Temporarily back in 2011, still on a mac.
