1. A method comprising: on at least one information handling system, initializing a software application operable to switch between a standard mode and a tutorial mode; wherein the software application comprises a standard function set, a tutorial function set, and a user interface operable to supply events; in the standard mode, the at least one information handling system routing the events to the standard function set; in the tutorial mode, the at least one information handling system diverting the events to the tutorial function set; wherein the standard function set comprises standard application functionality; wherein the tutorial function set comprises simulated application functionality; wherein objects of the simulated application functionality extend from objects of the standard application functionality, wherein methods defined by the objects of the standard application functionality are overridden by methods defined by the objects of the simulated application functionality, wherein the overriding comprises storing new data in temporary memory thereby avoiding modification to data maintained by the standard application functionality; and wherein the switch between operation of the at least one information handling system in the standard mode and operation of the at least one information handling system in the tutorial mode is performed by the software application upon detecting at least one mode-switch event and without manual interaction by a user.
