Custom Initial Zoom in Map Tour

[MGPGISUSER]

Please allow us to set an initial zoom extent on our web maps in map tours. It's great to have custom zoom on each point, but we also want it for the initial map view.

I would love to have this option as well! I am creating a StoryMap (still in progress) for my company to visualize and describe key projects. To best highlight them, I would like the map to be centered over the Pacific Ocean and zoomed to crop out Europe, Africa, and most of Asia. However, it keeps defaulting to the entire world centered on Europe/Africa, which pushes all of our projects to the side of the frame.

This is the default:

Default Extent

This is what I want it to look like:

Desired Extent

Being able to set a custom extent would be a game changer!
