I have created a Shortlist Story Map for our City. The application shows various community services available to the public.  I would like to be able to translate the Title, Subtitle and the popup contents to a number of languages. Firstly, is this even possible? If so, how would one go about implementing this? I am assuming this would be a ton of work so just trying to ascertain what level of effort is required. I look forward to your responses. Cameron ... View more

I am testing the performance of a hosted shortlist story map application (https://cosmos.surrey.ca/external/tools/avenuesofchange/assetmap/).  The web map used for this shortlist story map was created using a tiled base map (UTM 10). I added a supporting layer that is part of a feature service that is hosted on ArcGIS online. https://services5.arcgis.com/YRpe0VKTJytZSSIB/arcgis/rest/services/EDI_CENSUS_TIME/FeatureServer/1 What I am finding using the developer tools on Chrome or Firefox is that multiple calls (over 20) are being made to https://services5.arcgis.com/YRpe0VKTJytZSSIB/arcgis/rest/services/EDI_CENSUS_TIME/FeatureServer/1 in order for the application to get the geometry of the layer to display on the map. The calls are only different in the extent of the image that it is trying to retrieve. The application seems to be trying to create the image in small tiles. Normally a single call is sufficient to get the geometry. The result of all of these calls is a very slow load of the application (> 10 seconds on desktop computer, far slower on mobile device). Does anybody have an explanation of why multiple calls are being made? Regards, Cameron ... View more

I have created a Story Map using the Cascade template. I have added an Immersive Page and clicked the Add media button. I added an image (on a network drive) using the 'Browse to an image' button. It loaded successfully. Based on what I can see in the console the image is uploaded to our organization account on ArcGIS online. I shared the app to a group of users. When those users attempt to edit the app the image I added does not get loaded. It just shows the animated loading gif. Not sure if this is a bug or just a workflow issue. Cameron ... View more

Was wondering if it is possible to add search (feature) capabilities to a hosted story map shortlist application. It is possible to add search options to the web map used for the shortlist application but it does not show up in the shortlist application. Would like to be able to add a small search icon near the navigation bar and let the user type in text that searches the tabs for features contain the text typed in in. ... View more

I have noticed that when using the arrow keys on the keyboard that the map only pans a very small distance. When using the Silverlight api the pan distance is much greater, and in my opinion better. Is there an esriConfig.defaults setting (or similar) I can set to make the arrow keys pan a greater distance? ... View more

We have created a Story Map Shortlist application that is hosted on our servers. We'd like to be able to apply clustering to the graphics points for the tabs as in some cases the points overlap. Is this possible? I assume it will be difficult because the graphics are already created when the Web Map is initialized. Any thoughts appreciated. Cameron, City of Surrey. ... View more
