Convert selected notes into tuplets, creating the missing ones

Hi, is there a way, ad example, to select 8 quarter note and convert them to tuplets, i.e. obtaining 4 tuplets of 3 quarter notes having Dorico adding/creating the missing/requested notes? Only selecting and using the tuplets popover, just with these two clicks. I’m pretty sure one time I obtained this but now, Dorico 5.1.81, I can’t replicate it. Dorico converts into tuplets but don’t add the notes (even in insert mode) resulting in two tuplets (first bar) and two quarter on the second measure.
Thanks.

AFAIK, Dorico has never created notes. What is happening now is that Dorico is taking notes in the neighborhood to fill the tuplet (which can be absolutely not what you need…)
