Opeions/Document Settings/Music Spacing Options: Avoid Collision of: Articulations. Turning on this setting will automatically give you proper spacing for the arpeggio signs, and there will be no need to tweak anything.
I recommend leaving this setting on permanently, as it almost never produces an undesired result. >Hello all, > >Let's say I have a score with a harp part.
