What does the Reset button in the Effect Controls panel do?

The Reset button in the Effect Controls panel is designed to restore effects to their default settings. When you click this button, any customized adjustments or modifications that have been made to individual effects on a clip will revert to the original default values as defined by Adobe Premiere Pro. This feature is particularly useful when you want to start over with an effect's parameters without having to manually adjust each setting back to its default.

The functionality of the Reset button enhances workflow efficiency, as it allows users to quickly eliminate any unwanted changes they may have made without the hassle of tracking each individual adjustment. This is especially beneficial in a complex editing environment where numerous effects might be applied, and a user might want to experiment with different looks or corrections.

Other options do not align with what the Reset button specifically does, as they refer to actions that are unrelated to restoring effects in the Effect Controls panel.
