Migrated from Finale here. I am having big issues with lyrics on grace notes. The screenshot shows the issue. When I go into Engrave mode and select the handle of the note I want to move, I can move the left most grace note to accommodate more space, but the second one will not separate from the next full note. I have tried moving the grace note and it just gets closer to the first grace note. I have tried moving the full note (the quarter note/crotchet), and it acts like the grace note is attached. How can I make this legible?
But not always. It’s easy to create a collision scenario, with just a few extra letters.
You can get around this by selecting and moving the circlular handle in the voice column:

By your method, I can move the notes, but how are you moving the lyrics? When I try to use the same keyboard shortcut (alt-arrow), it simply moves each lyric to a previous beat, not subtly as you are doing.
You have to be in Engrave mode, not Write.
