select the measure where you want to put the time.
select the time you want in the Time-Palette and move this time to the selected measure.
click this time with the left mouse key and move it to the position you want abode the staff.
In MuseScore 4.4.3 under Ubuntu this functions correctly.
Perhaps there is a better way to do that.
In the attached files you can see the result.

Thanks for your suggestion. This would make the trick on a few occasion. In my example case, it didn't render nicely.
Simply moving above the staff let a huge gap (actually the place of the time signature).
And if I removed the Auto-place, then the time signatures just crash with the other elements. And the accidentals crashes with the barlines. And I failed to correct this though the format settings.

I can not reproduce your Problem. I first select the 3/16, 2/16 and 7/16, then i press the "properties" field, and I uncheck the "auto-place" button, and finally I move up de time signatures to the position I need. After this operation nothing is collapsing. In your Gif, I see that you have Uncheck de field "auto-Place" after you have move the position of the signatures, maybe that is your problem!.
