Hi After every 30 mins or so I see a distorted UI in Kibana. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/7/7781405d418eab3d09bf8628f5a81e840130401c.png). This goes away after I click on 'settings' and then on 'discover'. I am not sure why this is happening hence asking you guys if you have any idea. Could it be because I am registering index patterns programmatically using the API: [http://hostname](http://hostname):port/ index name /index-pattern/index title ? Thanks. ---

Yeah it's possible , it looks like the styles are loading correctly but I'm guessing there's a javascript error somewhere. If you open dev tools are there any errors in the console? Which version of Kibana are you on? ---

In case of an error I see the following in the console: TypeError: Cannot read property 'byName' of undefined at isSortable ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85441:34](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85441:34)) at getSort ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85448:47](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85448:47)) at Function.getSort.array ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85463:15](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85463:15)) at getStateDefaults ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85015:24](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85015:24)) at new ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85009:47](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/kibana.bundle.js?v=9732:85009:47)) at Object.invoke ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:31569:18](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:31569:18)) at extend.instance ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:36227:35](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:36227:35)) at nodeLinkFn ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:35339:37](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:35339:37)) at compositeLinkFn ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:34771:14](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:34771:14)) at publicLinkFn ([https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:34646:31](https://hostname:8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:34646:31)) (anonymous) @ :8443/kibana/bundles/commons.bundle.js?v=9732:39568 Kibana version is 4.4.2. ---
