I have a question about loading images into a project.
Suppose I am creating an icon for use in a project.
First I draw the icon, then I drag it into IB and the image
suitcase opens up, and I drop it in.  A panel comes up giving me
the choice of inserting it into the project or creating a local image.
I choose to insert it into the project, thus creating a .tiff file in
my project folder.  Now suppose I decide to make some changes to the image.
How can I make them take effect in IB?  Simply changing the .tiff file
doesn't seem to do anything.  In fact the file can be deleted.  IB has
put its own private copy in the .nib file.  If I try to add the updated
icon to the .nib file again (by dragging it into IB) I get an alert panel
telling me that the image already exists.  IB then refuses to write over it.
I guess my question is:  How can I delete an image from a .nib file?
