Mutiple "Tour Points" in 3D Map Scenes

[MichaelMurphy1]

New to story maps. What is the best approach to "touring through" a 3D Map Scene? (as Map Tours does not support map scenes.) Is it best to create in ArcPro either an individual scene or bookmarks, share each map scene individually, then link each to your story map. Is there another more efficient way I'm missing? I have a 3D scene where I need to show a step-by-step story, where in each step the following could occur: a)Points (and perspective) move to new locations b)*Layers turn on and off

Hi Michael -- In the web scene, you can save "slides" that capture the view and visible layers you want for each step in the tour. When you add the web scene to one of the narrative-style story maps (Cascade, Journal, Series) you can also specify the slide that shows at each point in your story. In Cascade, you can just pick the slide from a list, for Journal/Series you just add the slide number to the end of the link (see second blog below for details).
