Unfortunately, the roll symbols do not automatically avoid anything in
their default settings, nor are they avoided by anything, nor would
changing any of the settings help much, with two exceptions:
1) set Music Spacing to take articulations into account, this way when
you move a roll articulation way left to avoid accidentals the
collisions you cause with the notes before will be easily avoidable.
2) you can add horizontal space to the default handle positioning to
reduce collisions on some chords (explained below.)
Roll symbols can be either tremolo strokes or a squiggly horizontal
line. If tremolo strokes are used, they are normal articulations and
will avoid collision if the appropriate music spacing option is
checked. If squiggly lines are used, they should be put in, like
trills, as smart shapes, which will adjust their length automatically
with the note spacing and thereby avoid collisions 99% of the time.
