Using the JW Meter and Rhythm plugin how can I convert 6/8 to 4/4 and replace dotted values?

2/4 would also suffice if 4/4 is not possible.

Try contacting the developer, Jari Williamson, at FinaleTips.

I have since found the solution which is simply replacing the note values accordingly.

Don't contact the developer.

JW Meter and Rhythm seems obvious to me. This will change 6/8 to 2/4:

Then, use Finale's time signature tool to change 2/4 to 4/4. Be sure "rebar music" is checked.
