Figure dashboard with Bonito and WGLMakie

Hello everyone,

I am currently trying to set up a dashboard of figures using the following code

using Bonito
using WGLMakie
all_figs = Dict()
function newfig(title)
  fig = Figure()
  if title in keys(all_figs)
    all_figs[title][] = fig
  else
    all_figs[title] = Observable(fig)
  end
  fig
end
fig = newfig("rand");
ax = Axis(fig[1,1])
lines!(ax,randn(10))

App() do
    content = Any[]
    for t in keys(all_figs)
        push!(content,DOM.h2(t))
        push!(content,all_figs[t])
    end
    return Col(content...)
end

fig = newfig("rand");
#sleep(0.01) # <--without it, it fails because of timeout in evaljs_value
ax = Axis(fig[1,1])
lines!(ax,randn(10))

Without the small time delay between the creation of the figure and the axis the code fail with the following error:

Some type information was truncated. Use `show(err)` to see complete types.

I would like to know if this time delay is necessary or if I am not approaching the problem in the right way.

Thank you in advance !
