I think this is a long-standing issue, curious if there's a workaround.
I find that when I do cross-staff beaming, it is very difficult to control where articulations are placed. I'll position them where I want them, but then when I click redraw, they move elsewhere (often switching sides). When I try to overcompensate, say dragging way higher to get it to be high enough, the articulations actually move in the OTHER direction (after redraw).
Is this a known thing, or unique to me? Is there a solution?

Additionally, you could duplicate the necessary symbols and in the designer box, under "Handle Positioning", set it to "Manual".

I think the problem occurs when the symbol gets flipped, but the other day some (ewindles?) posted a file here where he had altered the handle offset and it suffered the same problem non-flipped, so maybe N's solution is good.
