I am using kibana 4.6 and i want to embed the search bar when i share a visualization using iframe. In the settings it's no option. i have seen older versions of kibana 4 that have that possibility and also I saw that on kibana 6. Can I do it on kibana 4.6.x ---

there is no option at the moment that would allow you to customize that. ---

So you are telling me that even if I move navbar inside the div that embeds when we share visualization like this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/e/0ee4bca51f438094a25e850e27294acd100b1de6.png) there is no way I can get navbar on the iframe ---

As far i am aware this is not provided as any build it kibana feature. This doesn't mean however that its not possible to implement it in your custom plugin. Showing the searchbar out of top bar definitely sounds like a reasonable approach. ---
