Staccato not affected by minimum distance?

Oh okay, that makes more sense. Thank you.
It gave me a bit of a headache with this part as well.
Are there any tweakable parameters that dictates the behaviour of those, or is it just a fixed rule? Disabling auto placement and moving it around did do the job, but there are far too many staccatos to do that.

Why would you want to? The whole point is to obey standard rules of notation by default, and that means these marking go to.the next clear staff space. Only in pretty unusual situations would it be appropriate for these symbols to not be close to the notehead.
