Hi Erik,
Yes. all is possible but some ways of doing are more convenient than
others.
Storing images in a group (or multiple groups according to the kind
of images: tool bar icons, cursors,etc.) allows you to find them
again more easily in the application browser (view by layer) but
don't make it easy to see them, insert new images into a specific
group, etc. In addition, often you will move these groups out of the
card window :-)
As you can *call* any image using its ID (to make it a button icon
for instance) wherever it is located (it's the reason why many posts
here and tools (by Xavier and others) have been dedicated to talk
about/solve conflict issues), one easy way is to use a dedicated
substack: no additional card in your main stack that might involve
special navigation handling...
Finally, see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/revInterop/database where
programmers can reserve IDs ranges for IDE projects released for the
community in order to avoid the above conflicts :-)
Best Regards from Paris,
