Group locking objects
I'm a part-time graphic artist at work. A possible solution to collisions would be to select various objects and to form a new group, so they are correct in spacing and not overlapping each other. They could be tied to a note in the measure and would not shift back to overlapping when the measure is moving around. Also this measure would have the same locked group when extracting parts.
Desktop programs, like Illustrator, In-Design, Quark Express, Microsoft Publish use this function to keep objects, including text frames locked on page.
Best regards,

collisions are being worked on in 3.0. Here is a link to what they are working on https://musescore.org/en/node/109381
The goal is apparently not have anything that looks like this

for the user to have to clean up, which I did using spacers.

Last time I heard about the automatic positionning in 3.0, triplet signs, fingerings and chord symbols were unfortunately not included, so it will be a partial solution.

It's a work in progress, but actually chord symbols *are* included, at least with respect to some collisions.
In any case, while I certainly understand grouping of objects and use that feature often in graphic programs, I'm not understanding how this relates to collision avoidance. Can you explain in more detail how you envision this feature being used in practice, and how it would be an improvement over simply avoiding collisions in the first place?
