Open the attached example. Although grace note spacing comes under "Minimum note distance" (Style > Measure), IME, more control is needed. Where note spacing is relatively tight, the result can be unnacceptably cramped grace notes: e.g.
To correct this is time-consuming: even more so when you have to correct tablature as well.
IMV, there needs to be a new property, "Grace note spacing" (say). The control of grace note spacing would then be under this property, rather than under "Minimum note distance".

Apparently a duplicate of #292404: Add style setting to control grace note distance and spacing.
While this doesn't fix the issue per-say, I have come up with a great work around for this that is quick and easy. Add a roll or other element to the primary note and then set the opacity to 100% in the inspector. Obviously this doesn't help if you want accurate playback, but for the score display it does the job pretty well.
