Undo image adjustments
Lightroom provides several ways to undo, or reset, adjustments you make to photos as you're working in the Develop
module.
Save a snapshot or preset of your settings before undoing them so that you don't completely lose the settings.
To undo adjustments in the Develop module, do any of the following:
•
Click the Reset button to revert back to the Lightroom default settings.
•
Click the General - Zeroed preset in the Presets panel to remove all settings completely.
•
Select an earlier version in the History panel or Snapshots panel that occurred before you applied the settings.
•
Double-click individual slider controls to reset the sliders to zero.
•
Choose Undo from the Edit menu. Lightroom tracks each setting you make. You can undo all of them by choosing
Undo multiple times.

View Before and After photos
You can compare two versions of a photo as you apply Develop settings to it. The Before view first displays the photo
as it was originally imported, including any presets that were applied. The photo remains unchanged unless you copy
settings to it. The After view shows changes as you make them. Zooming and panning are synchronized in the two
views.

To switch the Before and After views one at a time in Loupe view, press the backslash (\ ) key or choose View >
