Hello there! Is there a possible way to tie the cross stave grace notes?

Just barely.

In the attached score, you'll see that A has the grace notes in the tenor clef. They tie to the tenor part of the chord but not to the bass clef. Although those notes are displayed in the bass clef, they are logically still in the tenor, so those actual bass clef notes are not something they can tie to. Similarly, at B, the grace notes are in the bass clef, so they cannot tie to the tenor clef notes.

At C, I created two identical sets of grace notes, one in the bass and the other in the tenor clef. I set the last three notes in the bass clef to cross staves to the tenor and the first three in the tenor to cross staves to the bass. I used the offset to align the two sets of grace notes directly atop one another and tied the three notes in the tenor clef to the chord notes in the tenor and the three notes in the bass to the chord notes in the bass.

Looks like I should have made one set of grace notes invisible as the beams didn't quite align. They play back differently and I don't understand why???
