Attached is a note tied across measures. The Print View is using the
default LilyPond style which does not repeat the accidental until a new
system starts. The Denemo Display repeats it at every bar. Is that what
you see/mean?

I've not studied the code generating the display accidentals in any
detail, but, as I say it has been noticed before that these rules don't
correspond to the LilyPond default rules.
If you create a small example of it doing something you don't expect I
can add that to the bug report.

typing the word "force" into the Command Center search box gives

Command: Cautionary Accidental
Forces the accidental on the note to be printed.
