How to get an accidental to show in a measure?

Alright, well I'm arranging a piece and in one measure, there are a few accidentals that don't "agree" with the key signature, so to speak--this is pretty common in music. However, on professional sheets, sometimes there is a natural sign next to the note in the next measure even though it wasn't an accidental since the previous measure. Is there any way to do this in Finale? I feel it would make it easier to play.

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

Might be a full Finale feature, but if you use the selection tool, double click a note, and press p, that should add a "cautionary accidental".

that should work on all finale versions.

I have the full Finale, thank you so much! This should help a lot in future arranging.

Edit: for this to work, you need to be using speedy entry. Just a note!

Mhm. Double clicking something with the selection tool selects the relevant tool so you don't have to figure out how to edit something.
