1) create a file with a few notes of differing lengths
2) add acciaccatura to each note
3) raise or lower the acciaccatura pitch so it displays on a different line in piano roll editor
4) open piano roll editor.

Piano roll editor displays the acciaccatura as different lengths dependent on the length of the following note.
The length field is correctly displaying the length as X/1000 ths of the following note length so that acciaccatura is 65ms long (or there about), but the display shows the acciaccatura as if the length field were a portion of a fixed length note of about 1/8th note duration. This results in the acciaccatura of a long note being displayed very short and needs extreme zoom to effectively select the acciaccatura for modification.

Oops! Actually did not notice this field. Happens every time for me, but I don't as yet use piano roll editor that much. Experimenting with bagpipe embellishments. Also forgot to mention that you need to start playing the piece before this behavior is apparent. If the piece is freshly opened the acciaccatura are all displayed starting at the start position of the following note even if there are multiple acciaccatura. Also the following note starts at its standard start pos with no allowance for the acciaccatura. Once playing commences the display as originally described is used.
