6/4 time, change two quadruplet to two duplets
I'm in 6/4 time and I couldn't find out how to enter two duplets. Right now it's entered as two quadruplets. How do I change this? I've attached a screen shot. I want it be a 2 instead of 4.

I've did that, but it didn't work. The automatic measure counter kicks in then it gets messed up. That's why I had to enter it as a quadruplet.

attach the actual score (.mscz file) you are working on.
FYI... I've attached a screenshot of the original score.

Possibly simpler, method that doesn't require bar splitting/joining, or adding/removing time signatures:
Enter two dotted minim rests.
Ctrl+2 on each rest.
Enter desired notes.
Change noteheads and move bracket and number.

Ah yes, I forgot about the dotted minim rest as being able to be "tupled".
(Although for more complex situations the above method may be needed.)
