Michael beat me to the answer (2nd time today!).

FYI: "Reset to initial state" and "Resume saved state" are misnamed. 

  • "Reset to initial state" = replay timeline from the start. That allows timeline-based triggers to run again. And, of course, it also replays animations.
    • If the state of an object is changed (via a trigger or clicking), the program will not revert that object back to its original state. 

Hey Judy, I'm not seeing this action...if I have it set to "Reset to initial state", the object DOES appear to reset to it's initial state.  It makes more sense to me for this to occur, so I'm not complaining!  :)

    That's actually not how "Reset to initial state" used to work. I'm guessing they reprogrammed it as part of an upgrade so it actually does reset the states. I don't know when that happened, but I'm glad to know that's how it works now.
