The tab slide tool keeps on writing the direction of the slides in the wrong direction on the TAB.
How do I switch it to the correct direction?
It would also be useful to create a bit of distance between the notes too, so that you can see the slide more clearly. Is there a way I can adjust the positions of the numbers in the TAB?
Thanks in advance for any responses

Actually, the issue here is not the vertical direction; the Tab Slide indeed goes from the 5 and up to the 8.
Instead, the issue here is the horizontal Grace Note spacing; the 5 is so close to the 8 that the Tab Slide goes to the left (and up) rather than to the right (and up).
Fix:
1) Go to
Document menu > Document Options > Grace Notes
and set the value for {Grace Note Offset on Entry} to something like 12pt.
2) Go to
Document menu > Document Options > Music Spacing
and set {Grace Note Spacing} to Keep Current.
Since I do not know anything about your music engraving project, I do not know what the Grace Note layout should look like.
You may have to experiment with the settings before the Grace Note layout is as needed.
