Place a note on beat 1 and the next 2 boxes. Now click "SHUFFLE" for the last two notes.

Yes & hand me that Grand Piano too...
That sounds easy, but I don't see a way to just "click SHUFFLE for the last two notes".
Would you please walk (or shuffle

) ME through that too?
Also, how would this be accomplished if a triplet was needed on two different conga drums for example?

I can't believe I didn't ask this question myself, a LONG time ago. It's something, I've REALLY needed to know how to do for a REALLY long time. Thanks for asking this great question & as always, thanks for answering it!

Highlight the note and then click the SHUFFLE label in the bar editor toolbar.

Man, now I REALLY feel like a bonehead. I'm not sure what or where the "bar editor toolbar" is. I see the bar editor, but searching for "toolbar" in the manual yields no results.

I apologize, but where is it exactly? The ONLY place I see "SHUFFLE" on the left-hand side where it also says, "WIZARD" & "TIME". When you say, "Highlight the note", you do mean I'm supposed to highlight a drum in the bar editor, correct? Or am I even messed up there too?

I promise I'm not TRYING to be lame...

My fault, was thinking of an earlier version. Please highlight the note, right click on it and select 'Forced' under 'Shuffle' in the event menu.
