Progressbar issues (both WB 4.x and 5.x)

Hi!

I have a small issue with the progress bars in WB, which happens in WB 5.0 and even in WB 4.x.
When the left a part of the progressbar gets covered, the progressbar behaves like its length was only the length of the visible area. So, when it displays a 50% value, it covers 50% of the visible area. It happens everytime when the left part of a skinned progressbar gets covered.

Which version of the Windowblinds 5 Beta and which version of windows (including service packs) are you running?

Does this issue occur with any progress bar and consistently?

Does the progress bar have to be partially covered when it starts, or can a window be dragged over it during it's lifetime to reproduce this problem?

Thank you for reporting this issue.

I have Windows XP SP2 (English) and WindowBlinds 5 4.90d[b].002.

This happens every time a progress bar gets partrially covered. Depending on how much it gets covered, it "adjusts" itself, when the next update occures.
It seems to occure constantly with any progress bar.

Take a look at this video:

(The video was captured with Windows Media Encoder, using the Stealth OS skin. It seems like WME had some trouble capturing the transparent borders.)

Please note, that I also had this issue earlier WB versions, like 4.6, I was just too lazy to report it.
