IWBNI there were an option to specify that a given text block should be opaque.

This could be implemented by adding a checkbox called Opaque to the Standard Frame dialog box that may be displayed by selecting the menu item Standard Frame from the Frame menu that is associated with the text tool. If this option is not selected for a given text block, the text block would be drawn as in the current version of Finale. Otherwise, the rectangular text block frame and its interior would be opaque, and the text block would mask all objects that have been drawn before the text block is drawn.
