How do I enter two notes with different duration, starting at the same time?

Quoting an user:

“I cannot seem to figure out how to, for example, put down a whole note on one string of a quarter note on another *that start at the same time*. This makes it impossible to create a base line for a piece of music that isn’t played exactly on beat with the treble part of the music.”

Tablatures allows you to write your high and low melodies independently, thus you can achieve what you need in the following way.

Let’s start by adding a note to the high melody:

Then, in the Notes Panel, we switch to Low melody, change the duration and enter the second note:

That’s it. 🙂

I cannot find the Deck Editor. Where is it?

The Deck Editor is shipped together with Wiz Solitaire. When you download and mount the dmg archive, you’ll find these files:

WizSolitaire-*.dmg contents

Typically, you should drag’n’drop the whole WizSolitaire folder into your Applications directory. In this way you’ll also install the Space deck, which you can use as an alternative to the Standard one (other decks are available for download).

Is it possible to play Spider with more than one suit?

Yes: you can use the New Game with Options… item under the Game menu to choose how many decks you wish to play with.

You don’t need to do it every time you start a new game, since it will remember the last used setting.

The same menu item can be used to set the options for other games as well (for instance, in Klondike you can use it to change the number of cards dealt when clicking on the deck or to allow partial column moves).

Do I need to pay to upgrade XYZ to the latest release?

Unless specified otherwise, our general policy is that you can freely upgrade to any new minor release of the products you’ve bought.

For instance, if you’ve bought Wiz Solitaire 1.24, you’re free to upgrade to 1.25, 1.26 and so on. When/if version 2.0 will be released, you will probably need to get a new license.
