Hide the ugly blue line by going to the staff menu and de-selecting "show staff styles." I agree, it is distracting, but there are times that it is useful to find out if you've got a staff style applied somewhere that doesn't show otherwise. It's a necessary device, but it is best to leave it off most of the time. As far as hiding the shaded rests that appear in the background, you can control the color and intensity of those objects in "Program Options - Display Colors." I encourage you to hang in there, take the advice of Chris and Darcy, who do this kind of thing all the time, and you'll eventually figure out a good way to accomplish your intention.

How exactly are you hiding layer 4? When I press letter O in speedy
entry to hide an item in layer 4, the chord symbol attached to it stays
visible. I am in FinMac 2005a.

That's what I had been doing last 17 years till I got the tip to do stuff
wide last week. It is tedious to hit 'o' piece wide :-(

I didn't realize the suggestion was to use the stuff style but imagined
to use Document Option, Hide Layer instead. I was aware of Blank
Notation option but didn't want to use it unless if there is a way to
hide that shaded object and the ugly blue line over stuff specifically
only to layer 4?

To recap, my objectivity is to have chord attached to beat instead of note.
