Story Map Cascade- 50/50 immersive question

Question

At the UC conference session about Story Maps, I seem to recall a particular "slide" in a Story Map Cascade example that was 50% text content and 50% interactive map. Now that I'm home, I can't seem to find how to accomplish this in my own map. All I can set up is a full screen web map with the floating box of text.

Any pointers on how to implement the 50/50?

Thanks!

Maybe that's it. That's the look I had in mind as a part of my Cascading Story. Thanks again.

Maybe it was one of the other story map apps that you are thinking of? You can see them all and find examples of each on our Apps Page on our website.

Perhaps you are thinking of Map Journal?

Owen Evans So I tried this but I don't think this is what I was seeing. The media option inserts an image/map as an item but it is center justified in the body, and you can't have text off on one side or the other. Hmm.

Maybe what I saw was the immersive option but when I use it, the background of the text box has a transparency which doesn't seem enough. I'd like a text background with no transparency.
