Vertically moving a rhythm dot

Is there any way at all to move the dot on bar 37 to a space above so that the the lower note of the up-stem voice can move a bit to the left? I can’t do it at all, even in Engrave Mode.

Or is there any way at all, no matter how convoluted, to make this bar look better?

I would put the downstem dotted half in the next voice column to make it exchange places with the upstem note. Dorico does not have a way to shift the dot vertically, which has been discussed and requested a few times before.

Many thanks. With your advice I looked around and found Edit > Voices > Swap Voice Order, which solved the issue. :+1:t3:
