Bagpipe Gracenotes
All of the embellishments I tried to enter are coming in space lower than they are supposed to.
Multiple gracenote embellishments are also doing this.
Example: a single G gracenote is an F gracenote. E gracenote is a D gracenote. etc.
An E doubling has all three gracenotes as the next lower note, requiring me to drag all three up.
All of these happen when you select a melody note to place the embellishment on and then double click the embellishment in the palette.

Can you give precise steps to reproduce the problem? I just tried it as follows and it seemed to work as I might naively expect:
1) My First Score
2) add bagpipe
3) add a "D" as the first note of the score on the bagpipe staff
4) double click the first embellishment on the palette (a G)
Rersult: a G gets added, just as I expect.
I gather that bagpipes are considered transposing instruments but in a different sense than other transposing instruments, so I'm out of my element in saying what is expected and what is not. But it sure sounds like you are saying you are seeing somethng different from what I just described, so I wonder what you might be doing differently? Perhaps you are trying to add the note to something other than a bagpipe staff, so the transposition is off? I'm not sure it makes sense to add them to a different type of staff.
FWIW, there was a related issue reported against an earlier version but it was supposedly fixed for 2.0.03 - see #71256: Issue in 2.0.2: Bagpipe embellishments inaccurate when used on bagpipe score.
OK Marc. I think this one was MY bad, as I hadn't used the software for a while and I think I erred in the setup part of making a new score.
Although on past scores I was entering bagpipe embellishments while piano was the instrument and gracenotes were entering on the proper lines or spaces as if it were for a bagpipe instrument.
All this to say...crisis averted!
So I guess we close this issue
I'm experiencing the same/similar issue. When I double click on a "G" gracenote, after selecting a "D" note, it comes in as a F#. All of the grace notes come in a half step down. I'm writing music for small pipes (A mix) and have selected a key signature with 2 sharps...
Does that mean you adjusted the instrument to a transposing instrument? If you, are you adding the embellishment in concert or transposed pitch? If transposed (as it sounds) try it in concert pitch.
If you continue to have trouble, please ask for help in the Support forum, and attach the score you are having problems with and steps to reproduce what you are seeing.
