SidebarMonitor 1.5.13 — the integrated GPU's VRAM bar splits by process again
A fix for the integrated GPU's VRAM bar.
Fixed
The integrated GPU's VRAM bar was one colour. An integrated GPU has no memory of its own — a fixed carve-out of RAM plus RAM it shares — and Windows reports every one of its segments as "local". So the per-process figure the bar was split by ("Local Usage") counted the shared RAM too: 789 MiB of processes on a 426 MiB carve-out, one process filling the whole bar and the rest vanishing.
On an iGPU the bar now splits by "Dedicated Usage" (the carve-out), with "Shared Usage" as the RAM in the tooltip — e.g. firefox 347M · mstsc 48M · dwm 41M of 408M, each in its own colour. A discrete card keeps "Local Usage", which is the one that matches it ("Dedicated Usage" counts a surface shared between processes twice there).
Two installers as before: SidebarMonitor-1.5.13.msi bundles the AMD Ryzen Master Monitoring SDK; SidebarMonitor-lite-1.5.13.msi leaves AMD's binaries out.
