So this is really the very least thing that a bass player should be able to toggle as a fretboard preference in a Music Practice Software.
And for sure, also the other notes should somehow match those preferences then - e.g. if a player chooses to tendentially avoid open strings and that means that a specific d-note is on the 5th fret of the a-string and not on the open d-string, then the preceding and the following notes should also be placed around the 5th fret, as long as possible.

Just below the tabs E string is a list of number going from the left to the right. This list represents the fret position. Thus clicking on the 5 your notes will be around the 5th position, i.e. no open strings. This works for me. Does it help you?

Life is short so make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet arguing with strangers.
