Select the layer where the rest is. Speedy Entry, place the cursor on the rest and type O (the letter).
In Speedy, you could also move the rest manually above the staff, so it makes sense with the 4 sixteenth notes on beat 4.
You could also change the direction of the sixteenth notes stems -> up (press L).

Great, thank you! I ended up removing the dotted half rest but put a quarter rest on beat 3 so you'd know the 16ths come on beat 4 :P
