The distribution of the thirty-second and quintoles over two bars
The manuscript spelled out the thirty-second in one measure and the fifth is stretched over another measure. What do I need to click on or which tab to use to make this possible? I tried to do this through the Multiol tab, but this method did not help. I am attaching a screenshot.

It looks to me like the original copyist just didn't have enough room. That entire figure belongs in the measure where it starts. And, that dotted quarter on beat 3 should just be a quarter note. It's followed by the eighth, and then everything else fits into beat 4+. Either that, or its a third voice.
Or, I could be completely wrong!
Those sixteenth notes are grace notes and yes they all belong in the one measure.
I have two problems with it.
Voice 1 (stems up): half note F, dotted quarter Cnat, 16th note Bb, 16th note A (that's four beats there), eighth note Enat, eighth note Gb
Voice 2 (stems down): quarter note G, dotted eighth B, 16th D, dotted quarter note Ab, eighth rest (again, that's four), quarter rest.
