Seems to be happening now.

I find I *can* tie to grace note - create the tie nomally, then double click and drag to change the anchor. But then if I change the pitch of the second main note with arrow keys, it actually changes the pitch of the first main note & tied grace note instead.

I should also mention the inability to tie from grace to normal note - how I discovered the problem.

Such ties in 1.x scores are removed in 2.0.

Is there an actual musical reason for ties to or from grace notes? I can't think of one.

My thinking is if a note is played quickly and still held as the rest of the chord is performed.

Makes sense. What about a tie *into* a grace note, though?

I'm not sure about a case for tying into a grace note, so we should probably check with others.

Just having a quick look at 'Behind Bars' - not sure if it's a slur or tie in the example in page 127?

here [node:38666] there is an example of grace note tyed to real same note with a Schmann piano score
Maybe a pianist could explain to us what it is usually played and waht the "mission" of this tied note is....?

See http://musescore.org/en/node/38666 for PDF example.

Attached is the Schumann score (published by G. Schirmer) in which acciaccaturas tied into their principal notes can be found passim, most notably in the bass clef.

Where there is only one other note on the beat, the manner of articulation is arpeggiation - but, as is often the case, a choice was made by composer or editor to notate the passage in an alternate manner from what might be expected among various possibilities.

However, in this case cited by Chen Lung above (and in at least one spot in the Schumann, too) - where an acciaccatura is tied into just one note of a chord - it is not strictly arpegiation that's depicted. Instead, the acciaccatura would be played on the beat and the other notes immediately afterward but together. (My interpretation is in accordance with performance practices of the classical and early romantic periods, in which acciaccaturas are played on the beat rather than in anticipation of the beat.)

Here are further specific examples, this time from Fauré's Ballade Op. 19, published by Hamelle:

Chopin Op. 23:

Chopin Op. 47, where there are slurs and a tie:

Chopin Op. 46 (one note tied of a double appoggiatura):

Chopin Op. 46:

I have ties both to and from grace notes working in the following PR:
