The Sibelius Forum

Hello, im writing music in 6/8 and I need 2 groups of quadruplets in one measure.
So I pick a note and go "ctrl+4" but the result is this:
It sounds as needed, but the people who has to read it tells me they find it a bit weird and confusing, since they expected it to instead look like this:
Whats the correct way? I mean, both make sense to me but it seems the 8th beams quadruplets are more popular than the 16th beams. Isnt a way to write it like that?
Ill be waiting for your kind answers, thanks for reading!

Use the inspector.
Input the first quaver.
Click the tuplet button and choose other.
Input the ratio 4:3
Set the number option to number
Set the bracket option to bracket
Done.
The next time you do this in this sibelius session it should continue with the same ratio (ie [ctrl]4).
