neighboring tone in piano style
Hi, newbie here
I have two chords in piano style - 
As you can see i wanted the G in the first chord a quaver so i can add a neighboring tone for the G in the following chord.
This works fine!
I'm just wondering if it is the correct format? The quaver beam not being connected to the crotchets looks weird?
I did this just by putting the G as voice 2.
Thanks

Well, with 27 weeks having an account here you don't really qualify as a newbie anymore ;-)
Crotchets don't have beams, so I don't quite understand the issue here.
You can 'unbeam' the quavers, see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/beam.
You may want to hide the voice 2 minim rest, select, press V, the voice 1 minin reast will then move down to the stave Center automagically.
You could also write it as 2 quaver chords and tie the top and bottom note, see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/tie.
You are 'emajor' on IRC, aren't you?

A friend showed me this.. i think its sibelius but not 100% sure..
Or is the way ive done it all good?

Looks pretty much the same to me, except that the 2nd chode is using 2 voices 2 and that the spacing is wider, probably a matter how many measures there are to a system.
Different timesig too ;-)
And the notehead are touching both stems, that doesn't look nice

Well, it's a different notes, so not directly comparable. But anyhow, that version is notated incorrectly. The rules of notation require the voices be clearly distinguishable in cases like this where the chords overlap. Which is to say, MuseScore is doing it right, Sibelius or whatever program generated the above is doing it wrong.
The first version looks neater. I would hide one of the rests, though (using [Ctrl]v).

Just V, no Ctrl (that'd be 'paste')
