Thanks,

There is a user tool that can create grace notes to a chord in this thread (https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=6046.msg39966#msg39966). To make the vertical wavy line, install Boxmark2 from the scriptorium (http://nwc-scriptorium.org/helpful.html) and the wavy line can be inserted as text letter "c" when Boxmark2 is installed as a user font.

You could also use 2 staves, one that sounds but is hidden, and if the grace note durations don't suit you , you can notate it exactly.

The second is the visual, muted staff that has the symbol Warren recommended.  If the symbol isn't long enough you need to place additional text entries all justified the same and overlapping.  There is a problem with the Boxmark2 version as it does not overlap properly.  This is something I fixed in my MusikDingsSerif and MusikDingsSans font suites also available from the Scripto.
