How to write left hand notes in treble clef
I wish to place the E and G notes for the left hand in the treble clef without the extra ledger lines or adding the treble sign in the bass clef. I have studied the instructions for adding a second voice (the way to accomplish this???) but am not successful. Can someone enlighten me? Attached is the measure. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Thank you, Jojo-Schmitz. The attached now looks like the way I want it to look (i.e., without having the beams) even though I followed those directions. I don't recall what I did to get this desired (beamless) look -- even though I followed the instructions for the beam look. Perhaps a lucky try??? Thanks again!

There are beams, they just don't connect each beat. That's because the default beaming in 3/4 never connects beats. Do the same thing in 4/4 and you'll find beats 1 & 2 combined on a single beam, also beats 3 & 4. You can also change the beaming in 3/4 as described in the Handbook under "Beam" and "Time signature".

Thanks so very much, Marc! I am very appreciative of you and everyone else who participates in these forums. A donation is on its way. Best wishes.
I am trying to write 2 lines in the treble clef. One is a series of 8th notes played by the left hand starting at the lower E on the treble clef and the other is an E 2 octaves above as a whole note. This happens in about 8 different measures. 3 of those measures have notes in the bass clef as well. Is there a way of doing this in MuseScore Studio 4? Any help other than putting in photoshop and putting in that way would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A) Usually unhelpful to resurrect ancient threads. This one was 9 years since the last post.
B) Always unhelpful to post about a problem in a thread about a completely unrelated problem.
For both of these reasons, it would have been good to have created a new thread. Better still would have been to have looked through recent posts: this question is asked about twice a week.
That said, see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/working-multiple-voices.

Wow! First of all, let me just say that I am sorry to whoever hurt you so bad in your life prior to this that you felt you had to lash out at someone for asking a simple question and instead of answering with kindness, you decide to belittle their efforts instead. I am sorry that I work two jobs and barely have time at home with my family or to spend my entire life in these threads like some MuseScore Forum Social Justice warrior bashing anyone who offends you with a question that you deem is not worthy of this forum. I am sorry that I am not a Mr. Know-it-all that didn't need this forum to find answers to a question that isn't in the manual. I am sorry that I am just a human who is new to MuseScore and has simple questions. I am sorry that you have to cyberbully people in order to make yourself feel superior to those who don't know much about this software as you do. I searched for "how to write left-hand notes in treble clef", and this was the thread it brought me to. I am also sorry for what has happened previous to me asking a question on this thread that made me the "the straw that broke the camel's back" in your life that made me your "Let's make an example out of this guy". Is it the exact issue as the thread? No, but it is related with regards to writing the left-hand notes in the treble clef. I feel sorry for you that you don't know or can't comprehend the concept of empathy or compassion. An easier and more considerate answer would have been to simply say "I am not sure if you were aware, but this issue was last posted to almost 9 years ago. Here is a more recent thread that may help you find the answer you're looking for. www.useful-link.com." See how easier and nicer that was? Got the same points across without the disdain. No, I am not some snowflake who is hurt by every single word that someone says, but there is something called common courtesy. I tried to read your response in a way that WASN'T rude, but I just could not see it. I have had no other issues like this when posting to other forums. Most people are happy to share their knowledge because at one point, they were going through the same thing and want to help those who are now asking questions about it. It would be one thing if I had asked this multiple times and were shown how to do this multiple times and just not getting it. Then I would understand the frustration, but this is my first time asking. Sp, how about you just lighten up a bit.
That said, I do thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I hope today is a better day for you.

Are you still in your right mind?
