Stubborn beams

Stubborn beams are still haunting me. Just working through the batch of scores for our choir's Summer Concert and again find that pieces that I either key in or import from MIDI files often end up looking very different to the printed scores as notes are given beams by Notation and I then have to try to unbeam them so they look like the printed version else the choir members can get confused.

And sometimes the beams are stubborn: sometimes your fix works, and sometimes it only works if I exit Composer and restart. Sometimes I just have to delete the notes and rekey - but even then the beams may reappear. What might help is if I could set the beaming pattern to "no beams" - is this on the wish list? I am currently working on a 3/4 piece where I tried to set the beaming pattern to "6" hoping this would stop odd pairs being beamed - but that didn't work either. Any light at the end of this small tunnel?
Thanks
Tim
