Description

Your idea

Inserting a chord note into a triplet using copy and paste.

Problem to be solved

I can easily insert a chord note in a single voice using copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) onto the desired rest. However, this doesn't work when I try to do the same in a triplet. See the screenshot for details.
The note length matches, and I can insert a single note without any problems.

Research direction

Reproduce the copy-and-paste workflow with Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V by placing a chord note onto a rest inside a triplet, comparing it with the working single-voice case and the screenshot. Trace the triplet, voice, chord-note, and paste handling involved; done means the matching chord note inserts into the intended triplet voice without breaking the notation.
