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.
 
 Cheers,

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,
