June 2026 Update Breaks Stacked Embedded Content

AnthonyYattoni

With the recent update, our stacked content is no longer functioning as expected. Instead of being able to navigate through the images using the forward arrow, each image is now displayed as a separate tab, requiring users to click each tab individually to view the next image. In some cases, not all tabs are displayed, making it impossible to access all of the content.

Previously, users could view stacked content by clicking the forward arrow to seamlessly navigate through the images.

Additionally, we no longer see the option to expand images for a larger view, which was a feature that had been available and used previously.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and detailing this specific use case. I completely understand how the recent layout behavior change has introduced friction to your workflow, especially with compressed dashboards where screen real estate is limited.

To give some background, the recent change was implemented to establish standard keyboard accessibility and visual consistency for scrolling tab containers across the platform.

In the meantime, a highly recommended workaround to restore a smooth browsing experience is to transition from stacked individual embedded content elements to a single feature-based embedded content element.

'Allow expand element' option is retired and replaced with 'Focus mode' which is found in the configuration settings for each element.
