Hi all,
Thanks for your help so far, it's been really useful.
Is it possible to beam one voice across two staves? I've attached a sketch of the sort of thing I'm hoping to achieve.

In the attached demo, the first 2 measures does it the way you have it in the hand written sample. The last 2 measures does it the way the plugin does it. The method for each is different. Which is the way you want it?
