Or try this. No joining or splitting required.
The trick is to enter a dotted half note in the first measure and make it into a 9-tuplet and then make the second measure into a 12-tuplet. The 9 and 12 are made invisible and the 3s on the "triplets" are just staff text.
Enjoyed the challenge!

You're so smart! Yes, this was way easier than the joining and splitting method. Thank you.

It's from the 1st movement of the Brahms 2nd piano concerto (arr. for 2 pianos).

I should have guessed Brahms. He was a great one for not lining things up with bar lines.

In this case he not only didn't line up the notes on barlines he didn't line up the notes on the top staff with the bottom staff. I started to make a comment about this being a problem but it looks intentional.

Ha! You're so right (again).
