Parentheses around optional small note collision with augmentation dot

• Jun 13, 2016 - 21:43

In the attached "Excerpt", and measures 153-154 of the full piece, I'm using a small unstemmed voice 2 note with parentheses to show that the high note is optional. The dotted half-note on the g-sharp has the augmentation dot outside the parentheses, no collision. The dotted half-note on the b has a collision between the dot and the right-side parentheses.
One has to assume that the algorithm is working properly on the g-sharp, but why not on the b?
For what it's worth, I tried using the parentheses from both the Accidentals and the Note Heads palettes, no difference.

Thanks,

The placement algorithm isn't very sophisticated; it's always 0.5sp from the origin. You can adjust it manually in any of the usual ways (double click and arrow, drag, or Inspector).
