The image editing tools in Google Docs allow you to make some changes to a picture that you have added to your document. This is very handy when you know exactly what you want to do to a picture, but occasionally you will need to experiment with the different tools and options until you find the correct appearance.
Unfortunately it’s possible to make so many changes to a picture that it becomes difficult to undo them, which can mean the picture isn’t ideal for your current needs. Fortunately there is an option to reset a picture in Google Docs to its original state so that you can start from scratch and hopefully achieve the desired affect of the image.
