Editing Images
-
This may be a stupid question, but I've not figured this out...so perhaps I'm stupid. But what is the best way in Visual Studio .NET to handle image updates within a WinForm application? Currently, if I drop an ImageList or a PictureBox onto a form, I can assign an image to it and pick an image from a disk file. I may use that same image on 10 different forms. Now if I want to edit that image, the only way I know to do this is to edit the disk file in paint, then update all the forms is to remove the current image from the ImageList and re-add the updated file. Is there a better way to do this? In VC6, I could have an image as an embedded resource and then have various forms reference that resource by its ID. I could even edit that image right from within VS. I'm guessing that I'm not understanding something because I wouldn't think that facility would be missing in .NET, but I haven't come across how to do it and am hoping someone can advise me.
