Something strange going on here.
When I try to copy this bar:

It looks like there are 2 triplets entered within beat 3. The copying seems to have unmasked one of them. Copy beat 4 and paste it into beat 3, then renotate the pitches.

I didn't realise notes could get 'masked' like that. I ended up just starting again then the copying worked ok, because when I tried copying beat 4 to beat 3 it came out weird with a tied note.
Thank you
