I'm trying to localise a WinForms app for multiple languages. I'm trying to find a way to set my form labels/buttons text properties to read from the resources file in the designer (rather than having to maintain a chunk of code that sets them programatically).
I've found I can set form.Localizable=true, but then the resources are read from a file alongside the form, but many of mine are shared across multiple forms.
Is there any way to set a label's text in the designer, to a value stored in a project-level resx file?

On the Tools menu, click Resource Files. In the Resource Files dialog box, click Add. In the Add File dialog box, select the file that you updated, and then click OK. In the Microsoft Office InfoPath dialog box, click Replace the existing file, and then click OK.
For now, Winforms only stays on windows. Avalonia is a substitute for it.
Windows Forms (WinForms) is a free and open-source graphical (GUI) class library included as a part of Microsoft .
To answer the question, no.
But IMO, this should not be done anyways if the text will be static.
