Hi there, I'm relative new to Kibana, so be civil..  
I've created a scripted field in one of my indexes, and can confirm that it pops up in Discover. However, I can't seem to find it as a field when creating a viz.. Is there anything I have to do to refresh the index or something to make this work? I don't have any warning triangles as I do other times, when I need to refresh the index..

No, it should be showing up for visualizations as well. Do you mind sharing a screenshot?
