(MuseScore 4.5.0) Accidentals don't follow grace note when the grace note is offset

• May 5, 2025 - 18:28

Title.
If you add a grace note, then change it's offset, the accidental follows it. But if you close MuseScore, and open the score again, the accidental is no longer next to the grace note, and is instead where it would be placed if the grace note had no offset.

The problem can be solved by turning off the autoplace of the accidental, and possibly also adjusting its offset. The case proposed here seems rather unusual to me, however: why would I want the grace note superimposed on the 'normal' note?

I see. If you offset the grace note in a positive direction (to the right), this does happen. But only if you offset it to the point where it impinges on the normal note it is attached to ... which no one in their right mind would do. So yes, it's a bug and should be reported on github, but don't expect it to be very high in priority to get fixed.
