Trying two write 5:4 eighths. Finale will not allow more than 4 eighths within a half note. Years ago, Finale would allow extra noteheads, and then you could use a tuplet tool to justify as 5:4 or 7:4, etc. Now Finale will not let you write the extra noteheads, and then it autofills the incorrect rests. I stopped upgrading my Finale for just these sorts of reasons. I'm back and it does not seem Finale has fixed these sorts of issues. Look to Notion or Dorico for solutions.

With Simple Entry, on a Mac, enter your first note. Tap keys OPT-numpad 9, and set your tuplet to 5 in the space of 4. Check “Save as Default.” Tap OK to return to score. Enter the next four notes.

 

The next time you have one, enter the first note, and just tap numpad-9. Your tuplet will appear, and you just enter the next notes.
