I teach early block-based coding using makecode arcade. In the past, I’ve had students finish tutorials on their own and then, when the tutorial’s done and the result is on their page as a normal project, I show them how to add to it and make it their own.

Now, tutorials are staying in tutorial mode – the UI is customized so lots of code missing from the pallet and even the buttons to switch to Javascript are missing, so I can’t just copy the code from the restricted project to a new unrestricted one.

And so, now they can’t meaningfully extend their projects and the site is much less useful for the kind of scaffolded learning we were doing.

Is there a solution I’m missing? Where’s the “End Tutorial” button or the “Save as a Project” button?

Hey,

That happens based off a [flag set pre tutorial](https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-arcade/blob/master/docs/tutorials/intro.md#hidedone-true) to hide the ‘done’ button – e.g. it is used in the ‘intro to makecode’ tutorial because that one has three options listed out for users at the end. I think I’d be a bit confused by that behavior as well honestly, I’ll file an issue on this behavior for discussion. (If there’s a particular tutorial that you are using, or that bothers you, let me know and I can prioritize fixing that / so it doesn’t get dragged out into a longer discussion) [(issue filed)](https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-arcade/issues/7095)
