Grace note is being blocked by main note
When I try to place a grace note after the main note (so not the usual one where it's before the main note), it gets blocked by the main note. I tried dragging the grace note for distance but all it does is drag the main note with it. Is there a way I can distance the grace note & the main note? Or is this a bug which you have to fix? Thanks very much.

Sending a screenshot is not so useful, because we can't examine what you have done in the score. You need to attach the MSCZ score file as well.
MuseScore is capable of this notation without any collision - and without having to adjust the position of the grace notes:
![Grace note after.png]( "Grace note after.png")
The example score was done with MS 3.6.1 - which MS version are you using?
[EDIT] Just a thought: are you using the correct "Grace note after" icon from the Grace Notes palette?

There's a known bug where a grace note after can fail in this way if followed by a rest and there isn't already enough space available. Not a common thing at all, but maybe that's what you are seeing. See #293072: grace note after overlaps note if followed by rest. If you definitely need the rest, you could use a separate voice for this and put an invisible & non-playing note in this one.
