Setting a Custom Extent for a Map Tour

Hello! I am designing a simple StoryMap for my company to showcase key projects spanning the United States and Pacific. I created a 2D map tour from scratch and have started adding projects. To best highlight our projects, 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.

Is there any way to set a custom extent? I only see a few "Custom" extents that don't seem to actually affect the layout (world, continent, countries - large, etc.).

I also noticed that if I exclude the project I added in Guam, it will zoom to fit the other projects in the continental U.S./Hawai'i. I also tried the 3D map and it does the same thing - only one of the points I added is even visible.

I appreciate any insights or suggestions to help get this looking better!
