How to Beam Four Quarter Notes Together

See https://musescore.org/en/handbook/beams to see how to adjust beams a few at a time and https://musescore.org/en/handbook/time-signatures#change-default-beaming to adjust beaming for a time signature.

Be best to just re-enter those notes to make sure you don’t encounter further problems in this measure.
