This seems to work OK on my machine.

Why not try the shorthand tuplet entry method: in Speedy Entry, press CTRL+3 before entering any notes (a small “3” appears in the top right-hand corner of the editing frame), then enter your three minims [half-notes]; Finale should then treat them as triplets.

If you want to enter several consecutive sets triplets, you have to repeat the CTRL+3 before each one as it is cancelled once the triplet is “full up”.

You can also use the CTRL+digit shorthand for other kinds of tuplet:
. . . . CTRL+2 produces duplets (2 notes in the time of 3),
. . . . CTRL+4 produces quadruplets (4 in the time of 3),
. . . . CTRL+5 produces quintolets (5 in the time of 4),
. . . . CTRL+6 produces sextolets (6 in the time of 4),
. . . . CTRL+7 produces septolets (7 in the time of 4)
etc.
