2 eight notes per beam in 6/4?

I have this, and I want it to beam in twos.

I played with all of these notation options:

Yet they wouldn’t badge. What am I missing?

You could write [1+1+1+1+1+1]/4 together with this setting.

Thanks! That works. It is weird though that it’s considered a different type signature? Why I would expect it to be enough to change with a notation setting. I have many meter changes and I had to apply this change to each one, and will need to change it if I ever want to revert it.

You can select an existing one and use Alt-click to copy it to a new place, it will retain the note grouping.
