Cross-staff beaming for percussion
I want to be able to have separate lines for each hand, but to keep their notation beamed together, much like cross-staff beaming for piano. Could this feature be implemented for drums as well?
I’ve had to hack it together for now, but it’s incredibly limited, crashes or breaks very easily, and makes writing music 20x more difficult than it should be.
Something like the attached image is what I’m imagining.

Yes, it is possible. You have to edit de "percussion" instrument, and define the two hands. Of course, maybe the sound for the hands is the same. I have created the possible solution for you. I have used the sound of the Castanets, because in MuseScore they only show 1 sound. I have just assign two different notes 85 and 86 the same sound, and i have allocated then to the 2 lines.
You must do the same, but you must change "Kastagnetten" with your instrument sound. I attach the file xxxx.drm, which you should copy to the directory ..../Musescore4/Styles.
