HELP!

Question

I spent like an hour on a Python code and then saved it, and it has been loading for minutes now and I hope i dont loose it... Anybody know how to cancel saving or something?

Answer 1

I've heard rumors it's possible to delete the Saving... overlay using Inspect, then copy your code, refresh the page and try saving again.

Answer 2

there's no way to cancel the saving on sololearn.
what I would suggest is to select all of your code. then copy it so that way if you exit your code. you have it in your clipboard and you can paste it into a new code and try again.

Answer 3

Yes, I can confirm the trick Kirk mentioned works. I do it all the time! Inspect element > Delete loading overlay node > Copy code > Refresh > Save. (Repeat until it does actually save. 😅)

Answer 4

The rumors are true.

- just need know what to delete on site.

Answer 5

Oh gosh... I am on a school issued laptop and Inspect Element is blocked on them

:(

Answer 6

Maybe try disabling the network access. Perhaps it'll fail, and you can then copy the code and save it elsewhere. I'm sorry if it's too late :/

Answer 7

LunarCoffee That wouldn't work because it is blocked through the computer by administrator. Thanks for your suggestion, but I guess ill just rewrite the code from what I can see.

Answer 8

This context:
~ it's a way to understand what rescue tools would be available on an untainted browser.

Public-code context:
~ it's for devs who insist on trying to disable these things*; they may as well see how it's done + see that only policies are effective
~ Every web dev should know that "debugger" exists; it enables remote debugging too (mobile -> PC, for example).

* Disabling client-side UX is often wrongly motivated; a topic for another Q&A.

Answer 9

What is that Kirk?

Answer 10

Apparently it's pretty easy to disable:
