Never had to do this, but at a guess:

Work out the notes to be played.
Enter the starting note, then create a tuplet that will allow you to input the rest of the into the beat(s) available. You'll have to input a ratio for this, something like 12:8 or whatever is required. Elect to hide any tuplet numbers.
Make the resulting tuplet notes cue sized if you want them shown.
Enter the gliss line if you want it shown, select it and deselect 'Play on Pass'.

If you don't want the notes shown but just played, hide them and adjust note spacing/bar width to suit the appearance you want.

Like I said, it's a guess. You might have more luck if you asked on the official forum. There are only three of us answering questions on here these days.
