[power-pro] Re: powerpro.exe, High CPU utilization

[SS]

I don't use skin.txt or any other special commands.
I simply create a bar and in "properties | bars and menus |" assign the 
background as sample.bmp.
That is all. Nothing more.
Powerpro will automatically extend the small picture to cover the whole 
appearance of the bar.

The workaround is using a large picture, which is bigger/longer than the  bar.
