TabView 1.15

TabView 1.15 is now available.

This version includes a couple of rendering fixes, and two new features.

You can now decide whether to view tabs in the normal way (that is, as in the previous releases), to view only the tablature staff or to view only the standard notation.

Also, TabView now includes a Spotlight plugin which allows you to search through your tabs collection more easily.

Wiz Solitaire (for Mac OS X) 1.26

Wiz Solitaire 1.26 is now available.

This release focuses on a couple of improvements that have been requested for Klondike:

  • an option to allow partial column moves has been added (e.g. if K-Q-J-10 is one pile and Q is another, you can move J-10 onto the other Q). Enabling this option makes the game easier to complete.
  • when you ask for a hint, useless actions like moving a King from a pile to another won’t be suggested.

TabView 1.14

Here’s a new version of TabView.

Guitar Setup panel - click to enlargeIt’s now possible to see the details of the guitars defined in the tab using the new Guitar Setup panel: for every guitar you can see the description, the tuning and the capo to use (if any). You can also click on the string buttons to tune your guitar.

Also, MIDI playback has been improved to handle capo’s and tuning offset just like PowerTabEditor does on Windows.

Wiz Solitaire (for Mac OS X) 1.25

Wiz Solitaire 1.25 is now available.

New in this release:

  • Baker’s Dozen: double clicking on a card will move it to the correct foundation, if possible.
  • Added a shortcut to toggle the toolbar (Command + T).
  • Made the statistics sheet resizable.
  • Free Cell: made it possible to select which game to play. Use the “Game->New Game with Options…” menu item to enter the number of the game. The first million games are the same that can be played on the Free Cell implementation shipped with Microsoft Windows.
  • Scorpion: a message will signal when you are forced to deal the last 3 cards because no other move is available.
  • A “Game Rules” item has been added to the “Help” menu: it will open an utility panel with the rules of the game you’re playing.
  • Chinese Solitaire, Yukon: changed the layout of the table to give more room to foundations.
