Edit Converted PDF Music
Hi - I've downloaded MuseScore Mac version. Purchased a PDF from musesscore and imported it to MuseScore studio. It has done a very good job - however there are a few areas that it has messed up. When trying to resolve them, it seems that the tempo might be angry because the sheet music is saying one thing and MuseScore is changing the notes from quavers to demisemiquavers.
The only way I could add the notes is by inserting a sextuplet instead of 2 x triplets (as per the sheet music). Is there a way I can tell it what I want instead of it trying to demand?

First, this topic is not a good fit for this forum. The Plugins forum is to discuss making plugins for MuseScore. You probably wanted to post this in the Support and bug reports forum (https://musescore.org/en/forum/6).
That said, delete the sextuplet and enter two triplets. You cannot "convert" between tuplets; you must delete and re-enter. See the Handbook at https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/tuplets

Yeah sorry - I just clicked the help menu/button from the programme and wasn't 100% where to post. Thanks for the tip
The PDF import (as is usual) has messed up. Bar 13 should have 4 crotchet beats but the PDF import has produced, by the looks of things, 2 1/2 crotchet beats.
See that little grey - at the end of the bar, that's Musescore telling you that the bar is short. Select the Bar then Bar Properties and you'll probably have something like this:
![shortbar.jpg]( "shortbar.jpg")
Change Actual to the correct duration then you'll be able to create the correct notes.
