Beaming across staves?
Is it possible in v 1.3 to beam notes that are on different staves of a piano system?

I regret that neither of those examples covers what I am trying to do.
The first one describes a chord situation where there are simultaneous notes in both staves. (I'll also note that the illustration does not match what is being described in the text.)
The second one describes adjusting the beaming of notes that belong to the same staff, not across two staves.
In the MuseScore sample "Reunion_Example", there are a series of thirty-second notes in the penultimate measure that run across two staves and are beamed across the two staves without any apparent need for "invisible" rests as place holders.
How is that done?

See Cross staff beaming . It's basically the same in 1.3 and 2.0, except more flexible in 2.0.

Thank you, that does work.
How do I get rid of uneeded rests in the staff that I have moved notes to? The "Reunion" example doesn't seem to require even greyed-out "invisible" rests

For voices *other* than voice 1:
1. Rests can be completely deleted by selecting, and then pressing the 'Delete' key.

No invisible rests in Reunion because there are actually notes in both staves. There is a dotted half filling the top staff, and the small cross-staff arpeggio lives in the bottom staff. Had it noth been for the dotted half note, I'd have needed a rest in the top staff top, and I'd have marked it invisible (just press "V" in 2.0).

Thank you for the clarification.
I don't know if it is a bug or a feature but I've found I can hide a rest entirely by dragging it to the left, then it doesn't even appear as a greyed out rest.

Can ypou post the specific score where you are finding this, and precise steps to reproduce?
Occasionally dragging too far will make an object temporarily disappear, but it reappears when you release the mouse button or on the next layout.
