It would be helpful to be able to attach a Glissandi between a Note & Rest or Rest & Note.
Alternatively add gliss text to "Slide In Below"
Thanks in Advance

We do have slide in and slide out, above and below, so I don't see what you thing to be missing?
A glissando would need a defined start and end pitch, a rest doesn't provide it, so what you ask for wouldn't be a glissando

Addng a wavy line option to the Slide In / Out would do what I am after. For now I have used the slide in but the wavy line is more obvious.

"A glissando would need a defined start and end pitch, a rest doesn't provide it, so what you ask for wouldn't be a glissando"
Not necessarily. It is quite common to find in the contemporary repertoire (or in tango style eg) of plucked instruments, a glissando that ends with an undetermined note.
The finger attacks a defined note, and slides on the string to a location at your convenience, such as to obtain an effect of fade out.
I use this effect. Just input the two notes and then delete the second. The glissando (anchored to the first note) remains in place.
The opposite case is not true, of course! In this rate, a simple straight line can do the trick.
