To hide (or show) an accidental

  1. Click the Speedy Entry tool . Click the measure containing the accidental. The editing frame appears.
  2. Position the insertion bar and crossbar on the note in question. Use the arrow keys or the mouse.
  3. Press the asterisk (*) key. The accidental disappears (or, if there was no accidental, one now appears). The note’s pitch, however, doesn’t change; Finale still plays it back as though the accidental were visible. If you press the asterisk again, the accidental reappears.
