As I suspected, but wasn't sure how to fix. Thanks!

However, shouldn't this be automatic?

I agree, although it is a minor bug, it would be nice if NWC automatically aligned these, however it is nice (at this point anyway), to have the option of the extra accidental spacing as it is useful in aligning other characters from say boxmarks font. I don't know if you would be able to have it both ways.

Hmm. could the gracenotes be positioned independantly of the notes and the space they need after? I find it hard to imagine a situation where gracenotes SHOULDN'T align.

And then it doesn't realign when I change the grace notes to eighth-notes.
Also, the way it's layered, it shows it as thirty-second notes, not sixteenth notes.

You could adjust stem length on one staff so that the flags align correctly..

Er, should clarify: When I said one atop the other, I just meant "In the same system", not "Layered"

or just change the grace notes on the bottom staff to quarter notes.

I don't see why a layer is needed here. This:

|Chord|Dur:16th,Grace|Pos:2,4|Opts:Stem=Up,Beam=End
|Chord|Dur:4th|Pos:0,n3,5
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

seems to be what you want.

That would be the equivalent of layered, only without layering.
Layering would be one staff on top of the other.

In the same system, what Adam wants, would be something like the two staffs of a piano.
Got it?

... Put them on staves one atop the other.

made me think it was a layer, but:

... both these were on treble clefs ...

would seem to clarify.

This also works as saying what he wants-in which case David's is the best.
