These days I'm using the RGB Matrix Image function for various RGB fixtures and I have to say that it is exceptional what you can do.

Since I am using various RGB Matrix memories on the show that already use seven images .png I have to synchronize the show on various PCs periodically. I have not found this information:
- if the link to the images for the RGB Matrix is missing, what happens?
- if I put the image for the RGB Matrix in the same folder of the show the link is saved with a relative reference?
- If at the start of QLC + the reference to the images for RGB Matrix is not correct it would be preferable to have a warning message?

QXW files are XML documents so you can look at them with a text editor and see how the paths are stored.
You could also test what happens when the file is missing by moving one of the files and trying to open the workspace.

Great idea, i checked:
if the image files for the RGB Matrices are in the same folder of the show the link to the images is relative and therefore the show can be moved without malfunctions moving the whole folder
