Orphalese Tarot Zone Community Forum

Hi, all. Please forgive me if I'm being DUMB, but I'd like to be able to put in readings that I've thrown IRL to the saved Readings section of Orphalese. How can I do this? Can I do this?

Thanks in advance for your patience with me :)

What I do is click F4, which puts the deck into free selection mood, then flip through the cards finding the ones you want. When you do, you can flip that card up by clicking near the top of the card; it flips up away from the rest of the deck (which is spread out in front of you).

It seems a little complex at first, but as long as you have a basic idea of what a card looks like, they're not too hard to find, even in larger oracle decks with 90-100 cards.

Also, if the physical reading was done using a spread that you happen to have programmed into the Orphalese Tarot you can select the spread while in Free Selection Mode as described by Hermit. When you do this you see a schema of the spread, and you can select the cards that you want to fill each position one at a time. When you are happy with each card being in its correct position you press OK and the spread is laid out, including both spread position and card notes. This can then be saved or emailed to another user.

Just an FYI you can sort the cards before putting them into Free Selection to make finding the matching card easier.
Right-Click Deck, Select Sort, then chose Ascending or Descending
or
Ctrl-Shift-A (for Ascending)
Ctrl-Shift-Z (for Descending)
