not difficult ones but Finale Print Music has a problem with. I am in 4/4 and trying to make 4 tuplets in a measure 3 - 1/8ths each using the tuplet tool.. No matter how I try to attempt this ) 3 - 1/8ths in place of 2 OR 12 - 1/8ths in place of 8} it allows me to do 3 tuplets for the 4th tuplet it allows me to put in 2 - 1/8th notes but when I go to put in the last note it gives me that sound, if I save it it shows a 16th rest where I wanted the last 1/8th note. I have spent way too much time trying to figure this out. Can anyone help?.

using Print Music 2014.5 on regular laptop (not Apple}

Thank you, it worked, not sure why it would not work the other ways but I appreciate your help.

The other methods don't work because they require overfilling the measure, and then creating the triplet. (You can avoid this problem by unchecking Check for Extra Notes in Simple Entry Options... but I prefer doing it my way.)

In my tutorial, after you enter the first note, you are telling the program that a triplet is coming, so it automatically "downsizes" the notes to fit them in.
