Reset curtain wall changes

Hello. I am wondering if there is any way to reset changes made to a curtain wall? I've made a wall, moved some frames, deleted some panels etc., is there then a way to reset it to the base?

I would suggest that in such a case, if you know you might need to do this, save the Scheme of the Curtain Wall as a Favorite. Then, if you need to reset it, just go to the Scheme page of the Curtain wall Settings Dialog and reapply that saved Favorite.

This is what I tried, but reapplying the favorite does not reset any changes I've made (which is great sometimes, but I wish there was the option to choose to do either way).

What if you apply another Favorite, then apply the original Favorite?

It keeps the changes anyway. What I found to work was to reduce the length of the curtain wall far enough to remove the changed areas, and then increase the length back, in effect re-creating it from the original settings.
