Try double-clicking on a rest with the selection tool. If the rest is
not within staff lines (which is apparently the case here) you will
find that this action selects the rest in Simple entry, automatically
switching to the appropriate layer if necessary: you can now move it
(with arrow keys), hide it (press 'H') or delete it.

I have received this question from my composer colleague with whom
I work on engraving projects with. I can only pass along his own
description of the problem because he is using Finale 2006 and I
have not yet been able to upgrade from 2003. Apparently, he has a
couple of quarter rests that have left their measures and migrated
to a couple of weird spots on the page. On one particular page (in
page view) he has a rest between two percussion staves, and a
second one showing up well over on the desktop (as he has a
widescreen monitor). He says he cannot attack these rests with the
special tools because he can never get a handle for either rest.
What's really too bad is that he has this whole score exactly as he
wants it, excepting these two rests, and he's at the point where
he'd rather white them out rather than risk damaging his entire
layout. Has anyone had something similar happen to them, or does
anyone have any ideas about how to go about search-and-destroying
these rests?
Thanks in advance,
Michael Wittenburg
