I accidentally hid the staff I was using for cues (only on one system). I've made many additions since doing that and don't want to go back and undo all my changes and additions. Is there any way to "unhide" or get that one staff in one system to show up again?
Thanks.

If you hid it with a staff style, delete the staff style. If you hid it with "hide empty staves," the should be a dotted line in its place in the Staff tool. Right-click on the handle attached to that line.

If you hid it with a staff attribute, go to the Staff tool menu, pick Edit Staff Attributes, find your hidden staff, and uncheck Force Hide Staff.

(Finale gives you so many ways to hang yourself!)
