Can somebody please tell me, what’s going on here with the tuplets in bar 3?

Notationally, a number of your measures don’t have enough “stuff” in them. The sixteenth-note triplets only fill an eighth’s duration. Not sure why they’re playing back as the beat-2-filling eighth-note triplets, though…
This version has the triplets notationally corrected, but is there some other musical result you want?

Me neither. And there’s a lot of them in the whole piece.
Btw: it’s original Dorico - not an xml import.
What do you actually want to hear?
I want to see, what I hear 
Then the one I uploaded should do the trick.
Thank’s and yes, but that means that I have to rewrite a lot of other places.
This shouldn’t happen at all… 
Well, things don’t just “happen.” You must have set the initial note value to a sixteenth.
I often wonder why people in this forum are so reluctant to recognize a solution…
I probably did. But then I would expect some rests if the bars is not filled out ?
And I would expect playback to play, what’s written…
I’m not. I’m just searching for an explanation.
So would I. Very strange. How exactly did you enter the sixteenth-note triplets?
EDIT: @Mads_Vinding, I checked your original, and see that you entered them as 3:4. So the playback is “correct” (three sixteenths occupying the duration of four). I don’t know of any cleaver way to simply redefine the existing tuplet values. Perhaps someone else does?
Could insert mode have done this?

Don’t forget about select + opt/alt + click. You could pretty quickly get the correct eighth-note triplet rhythm that way, then “just” (not sure how many “a lot” is) go back and edit the pitches.
Yes - that’s probably the easiest way.
Thank’s @judddanby

You entered 3:4 triplets and they show just “3”, which is misleading and incorrect notation. When you enter just 3 in the popover, you get a proper 3:2.
