Reverting Projects
The Revert to Saved command discards all changes you’ve made to a project since the
last time you saved it. The Revert command is useful as a tool for trying out changes in
your project. You can save your project in the state you like it, then make the changes
you want. If you don’t like the result, use the Revert to Saved command to immediately
go back to the way it was before.
Note: You can also use the application’s unlimited undo feature to achieve the same
purpose in incremental steps. For more information on the Undo command, see Edit
Menu.
To revert a project to the last saved version
