The difference between project resources and local resource images

Question

What is the difference between viewing an image on a window shape control from a project file or a local resource file? In my project, I used images from a local resource. It would be better to have all my images in the project resource file and why?

thanks

Answer 1

In the case of a local resource, an image can only be used with this particular form, and if you need it in any other form, you should duplicate it.

whereas in the project resource the image can be used for several forms and there is no duplication of the file.
