Hello! Previously, I took screenshots using pageres in Kibana v6. \* (I also tried other utilities). After updating to v7.2-7.5, the screenshot returns a white screen. It is as if something is limiting and does not allow you to take a screenshot of the dashboard, the main page or any other in Kibana. Do you have any ideas?

P.S. The screen is 100% true, because when I boot Kibana, I see an inscription in the screenshot - "Kibana has not booted yet." After loading - a white screen.

Hi,

There is nothing specific to restrict taking snapshots of KIbana.

Would you mind sharing your `pageres` configuration?  
Maybe something about the way the page is structured in 7.2 doesn't match your previous settings?

I've tried  
chromium-browser --headless --disable-gpu --no-sandbox --screenshot [http://192.168.101.101:5601](http://192.168.101.101:5601)  
and  
pageres "[http://192.168.101.101:5601/app/kibana](http://192.168.101.101:5601/app/kibana)" 2560x1080 --filename=new -d 10 --overwrite  
(from [https://github.com/sindresorhus/pageres-cli](https://github.com/sindresorhus/pageres-cli))  
The result is the same. Screenshots work on the old version. On other sites too.  
Dashboards also return a white page (when Dark mode is on, returns a black image)

Hey Nickita,

I tested this out locally, and I was able to generate a screenshot by running `pageres "http://localhost:5620/app/kibana" -d 30`.

Can you access kibana on that ip \ port yourself?  
If so, maybe consider trying to increase the delay?

Liza
