How do I write stride bass clef parts while maintaining a swing treble clef
I was messing around for the first time with musescore and noticed that when you try to write a stride part for piano in the bass clef while the score is designated swing, the bass comes off boogie woogie like, not as stride due to the bass notes continuing to be swung.
Is there any way to specify that the treble clef should be swing while the bass clef is normal or some other way to temporarily denote that the bass notes should not be swung?

No, swing text is System text. so applies to the entire system

Is there any hack to get around it, like some kind of individual note attribute for the bass clef?
I noticed for instance that quarter notes don't seem to swing. Perhaps the time signature can be changed?
Instead of using the "Swing" text from the palette, add plain staff text (saying "Swing" and "Straight", e.g.). Right-click the text, choose "Staff Text Properties…", and you'll find there's a "Swing Settings" section. Have fun! ;-)

Ah, yes, I forgot that staff text has that property too
