Speedy/Auto Freeze Accidentals

When Auto Freeze Accidentals is selected, Finale automatically freezes accidentals when you show or hide them in the Speedy editing frame. Frozen accidentals on notes remain the same until you manually change them, even if Finale checks accidentals in a measure you’re editing (Check Accidentals is selected in the Speedy Menu). When Check Accidentals is selected, Finale will scan the measure to determine what accidentals should appear according to general notation rules; Finale then shows or hides the accidentals as needed, unless they are frozen.

When Auto Freeze accidentals is not selected, you must use option-* to freeze accidentals.
