It would be great with a swipe option when using Map tour in story maps. I often have a lot of geological places that I set up in my tours, and it would be a great advantage to be able to swipe between two images, one clean image and one with for example interpretations, arrows and drawing on them.

Great idea! Nice to have this tour option to show how places have change over time

How can someone get this idea to the "right" ESRI people, so they can add this function, any one knows who I can write to?

@BarbaraBiskopstøHansen -- This is the best places to post an idea to gain support for it. We definitely see the utility of this, but it also adds some complexity to map tours that we would need to think through.

Could you share some additional information about what you'd expect from this feature? Are you interested in using this with tours created from scratch in the builder, ones created from feature layers, or both? Which tour layout(s) would you like to see this feature added to? If you're interested in seeing this for explorer tours, what would you expect to see for the thumbnails for each place when using a swipe? Would it be sufficient to support images or would you also want to add a swipe with two maps?
