What you show is correct - swing eighth notes are not the same as triplets, but are normally somewhere between those and straight eighths. If you want to write a figure that lines up with the triplets, better use triplets on both staves, or write in 6/8.

Also, in the future when asking for help, please use the Support forum, not the Issue tracker.
