Sideways Z beaming

I don’t know what the proper term is but I’m trying to create a sideways Z beaming. It is tricky because this double dotted 8th followed by the 32nd is in a separate voice. This is being transcribed for an old score from the 40s and I am trying to stay faithful to the composer’s handwriting. Please see below:

In the bass clef, there are 2 voices. The “Up-Stem Voice”, when I want it to go to the staff above, I select “Move to staff Above.” It automatically places it correctly.

I hope this helps!
