Tin Whistle Tab Issue
I'm having a problem with my tin whistle tabs! I'm writing a piece with three parts, and when I select "add tablature," the music does not correct itself to leave space and the tabs end up right on top of the bottom two parts! How do I fix this?

Can you share an example score?
I'm also assuming you're using some plugin to generate the tablature, can you point us to which one?

I'm using the Tin Whistle Plugin. Here's a screen shot.
If I could figure out how to make the spaces between the three parts wider, that could fix it. But I'm not so hot at this and I haven't been able to figure out if that's possible.

That's not the score @jeetee asked for and is needed to investigate
(You could use spacers, for example)

But this IS the score I was asking about ... are you asking for the actual file?

Yes, the score, not a image of it.
Like this.
And indeed those tin whistle fingerings have autoplace disabled.
Right-click one, select all similar, in Inspector tick Automatic placement

THANK YOU! That fixed it. (And I never would have figured it out on my own!)

FWIW, you shouldn't have to do that, it's a bug in the plugin, should be reported to the person who developed it.

My guess is the plugin is disabling automatic placement in an effort to position the symbols above or below the staff as desired, rather than simply setting the placement and/or offset fields correctly.

Do you know how to adjust the space between the staffs for the three parts? That could fix it, but I haven't been able to figure out if that's a thing I can do. (I don't really know enough about what I'm doing to know what words I should be looking for when I go through all the menus.)
Here is a screen shot of the mess, if that helps.
