Extra white space beneath sidecar slideshow story

[LindseyMcGrath]

I have created a slideshow sidecar tour to embed on a webpage. Unfortunately, on both the main tour linked below and the embed, there is a large amount of white space below the tour. I have tried to delete empty text boxes below and explore other ways to remove the space, but nothing seems to work. 

Can you please help me remove so the bottom of the story and embed is the bottom of the sidecar?

@LindseyMcGrath - It looks like some of the slides in that slideshow have panels with a lot of text. The page needs to be tall enough to accommodate the longest panel. Additionally, slideshows work best when readers can just click through the entire show and read all the text without stopping to scroll.

If you keep the text panels short enough so they are fully on screen, you should see that space disappear. You can revise the text, to shorten it, break up the longer text across multiple slides, or try the wider panel size.

Thank you! I will revise as advised. Our of curiosity, would adjusting the iframe height help at all?

You could try that, but I'm not sure if that would have the desired effect.

I gathered that you were creating this story to embed in another web page. We are working on a feature to facilitate this workflow that I think you will be interested in (and it may resolve this issue). We expect to have something available by the end of the summer. So keep an eye on the ArcGIS blog for the upcoming what's new in ArcGIS StoryMaps announcements.
