1. A method for performing and reversing editing operations in a media-rich project on a graphical user interface (GUI), the method offered by a user device, the method comprising:

  • offering to a user an editing action on a pre-edited view in an editor of said media-rich project via an input device, wherein said editing action, after being performed on content on said pre-edited view, displays a first-edited view of said media-rich project, wherein said pre-edited view is a view of said media-rich project before said editing action was performed;

    responsive to said user navigating the editor away from the first-edited view to a second view, storing said first-edited view as a last-edited view and displaying a GUI element depicting a first reverse action; and

    responsive to a first user activation of the GUI element;

    causing said editor to exit from said second view, return to said last-edited view, and change the GUI element from depicting the first reverse action to depicting a second reverse action, wherein the editor is returned to the last-edited view after the user navigates the editor away from the last-edited view upon said first user activation of the graphical user interface element, to display on the editor the last-edited view; and

    responsive to a second user activation of the graphical user interface element, causing said last-edited view to revert to said pre-edited view by reversing said editing action.
