Three-note ornaments
I would like to know how to place 3-note (or 2, or 4, or any other number) ornaments, so that this group (grupetto) of notes are played like a turn, or mordent. Their duration shouldn't count, and they should display as small notes.
I've tried setting them simply as small notes, but it doesn't work as expected: they are not shown small enough, and their durations count. How should I do it?
Comments
Probably grace notes, probably either appogiaturas or "grace notes after". These will display small but also have their time borrowed from the main note they are attached to. In order to advise further, we'd need to see the score and understand the specific result desired.

This is what I'd like to do. It's perfectly fine if they borrow time from the main note during playback.

Note that those only work properly with a bagpipe, which is transposing instrument

Ok, so how can I do it for non-transposing instruments then?

What? You can add multiple grace notes to a note
You can use the bagpipe palette too, but don't expert those to sound like their name implies

That's the thing. I don't know how to add multiple grace notes to a note. I know how to add just one grace note, but not how to add more than one. Sorry if I seem a but dumb.
