When the page has been scrolled, the element coordinates returned by NeedleWebElementMixin.get_dimensions() are relative to the top-left of the page, but the screenshot that get_screenshot() crops starts at the current scroll position. This results in the returned screenshot being of either the wrong part of the page or mostly/all blank, depending on the browser. To fix this, the current scroll position needs to be subtracted from the position, like so:
