I have a document with numerous single grace notes, and a few double grace notes (2 notes in the grace).
The grace notes were too far away from the main note, so I went to Document Options: Grace Notes and changed the Grace Note Offset to 0.01042.
That made the individual grace notes closer to the main note, and they look great. But the double graces are right on top of each other.
How do I fix this?
Is there a way to individually move grace notes?
I'm using Finale 2017 on Windows. I'm attaching a jpg. There's a single grace in the first stave, and a double one in the 2nd stave.
Thank you for your help.

Try making these settings in Document Options:
Grace Notes > Grace Note Offset on Entry: 1.75 spaces
Music Spacing Options > Grace Note Spacing: Check Reset to Entry Offset
Manually respace the measures with the grace notes (select measure and hit 4). Does the result look OK, like the picture below?

Just to answer this question. Individual notes and rests can be moved in speedy entry by grabbing them with the mouse and dragging them where you want.
