Add two consecutive notes to a score. Select them both. Add / Lines / Note Anchored Line.

Result: line does not appear. But, save & reload, and now it does. Worked in 3.0.4, not sure what's off now. Wild guess: tick() not doing the right thing?

Can't reproduce, works for me.

Shouldn't it rather be "Notes anchored line" as it requires 2 notes?
Also these lines seem to need a ~0.5sp X-offset, to go from notehead center to center rather than left edge plus a bit (line thickness?) to left edge

Well, in MuseScore 2 they didn't even touch the noteheads at all and had to be dragged into place, so this overshooting went unnoticed

I'd rather have them being laid out like straight glissando (of course without text and playback).
Might solve the issue at hand here (glissandos display without the need to save/close/reload) and the layout issue

Not sure. Maybe because it was kind of an afterthought and not fully implemented at first, also there would be confusion as you wouldn't be tell it apart from a regular line (unless we used an icon, that showed it with notes at either end).
