Beaming notes in 6/4

This extract is in 6/4. I can’t get consistent beaming. I’m wanting two quavers ties to a crotchet as in beats 3 and 4. I’ve tried a few things in notation options, but no success…
Help much appreciated!

That’s correct as shown. 6/4 should split in the middle of the bar. It looks like you want 3/2.

You can set it to 3/2 and hide the time signature.

For a one-off, select the 8th-tied-to-quarter, press O for Force Duration, then 5, 6, period.

6/4 is 6/8, halved. It’s two groups of three.
