Dear Dale I cross staffed from the trebble clef of piano right hand to base clef of the left hand. The stems and beams automatically turn to look upwards; so, if you take care to first turn downwards all stems and beams of the left hand part, the result looks like two voices. Note, that Sib-Access doesn't give you feedback, that the notes are cross staffed. So, I suggest to do it at the end of editing. When you arrow in a staff which notes have been cross staffed, Sibelius acts as if they are still in the staff to where they originally belonged. And as you have read in a previous mail, slurs haven't moved. That's bad of Sibelius, I think. Good luck for your first go.
