Those get applied *behind* the music paper, in page view only. That
is, they function as the "desktop" on which your music paper is sitting.
Textured paper in Sibelius and Finale changes the way the actual
*page* looks, so that it can be something other than blinding white.
(I should add, with a slight sense of dread, that I hope the Finale
implementation includes scroll view as well as page view. I use
scroll view exclusively for entering and editing music, switching to
page view only to do layout chores -- in fact, the lack of a scroll
view is one of the biggest things keeping me from switching to
Sibelius -- and I would be very disappointed if Finale had
implemented this in a way that only works with page view. I agree
that it's not a huge feature, but it would be nice to be able to
select an off-white background.)
