Magento version: 1.9.2.4
I am currently working through this tutorial, and am trying to install the Layoutviewer module.
I following the link on the page to where I could get the layout viewer, and then used the manual install guide on this page to install it.
The module is being detected by magento, and is listed on the Disable Modules Output section (it is enabled).
The directory tree for the module is as follows:
magento1
app
code
local
Magentotutorial
Layoutviewer
I have also made sure that the config file's name and contents are 100% correct.
When I try to use the module (http://127.0.0.1/magento1/helloworld/index/index/?showLayout=page) it doesn't work, and just shows me the screen as it was before.
Is there anything I could be missing, or did I perhaps install the module incorrectly?

Problem resolved:
I placed the Layoutviewer in the Magentotutorial directory, but it was supposed to be in it's own (Alanstormdotcom) directory.
Both of these solutions worked:
