# Reset data

During your analysis in Flex Modes, you might want to stop what you are doing and start again. You can use the **Reset** tool to restore your workspace to its original state.

If you're in a database, clicking Reset will restore the default view of the database:

* Toolbar menus (such as Property, Stream, Period, and so on) will reset to their default selections, except for the Mode setting, which remains unchanged.
* The first dimension or the Summary (if available) will be selected.
* Any columns added to the grid will be removed; hidden columns will become visible again.
* Any advanced search filters and conditional formatting will be cleared.
* Any charts added to the Chart view will be removed.

If you’re in a favorite, clicking Reset will revert your view back to the **saved state of the favorite**, not the default state of the underlying database. This includes the same changes listed above, but the settings will match the way the favorite was originally saved.
