InDesign CC 2017 - Restoring Four Default Anchor Points To Image Frame

[Chris Panny]

Windows 10 64 bit, InD CC 2017

I've been working on a big InD print file for a client that has a lot of existing image frames in tif format. However, the previous designer added multiple anchor points with the Pen tool. I think the reason for this was to add custom regions of transparency to the image.

Is there a way to revert the frame back to its original settings with just the default 4 anchor points? Right now I'm removing these, one at a time, but using the (Pen) Delete Anchor tool. There's just so many of these that it's digging into my allotted time to finish this off on schedule.

The 1st, 2nd and 4th frame below have the extra anchor points that I'd like to reset back to just the default 4 points.

Convert the shape using the tools in the pathfinder panel.
