2.0.3 on Win 7/10.
See attached file.This problem has been there since 2.0.2:
The glissandos are OK in the pitched staff but not properly centred in tablature. They always appear by default to the right of the correct position by a fraction of a space.

Although it is not apparent on the attached score, this problem also affects notes in pitched staves as well.
There is a general problem with glissandi and slide in/outs adding extra space between notes. A Glissando needs to have a minimum length in order to be visible on the score, but if there is already sufficient space between notes there is no need to add any more.

Still the case in MS 3.

Didn't do much testing, but a quick try seems to give better results within Musescore. Ironically, If using the screenshot tool in MS, the results come out screwed up (off-center and to the right):
(This seems related to the problem of off-centered gliss text with regular staff on pdf/png export with an existing issue: #299299: Gliss text off-centered upon PDF and PNG export)
Here's the same exact thing with a regular Window Manager screenshot tool:
Besides the background color of course, what the heck is going on to cause the discrepancy?
