@CoMAGOL_ADMINISTRATOR, @lzk222 -- Thanks for sharing your feedback about map navigation. Although the buttons zoom in at full intervals, you can zoom to any scale by using a keyboard shortcut. Simply hold down SHIFT and drag the box to cover the exact extent you want to zoom in to. @lzk222 -- There is a map configuration that is useful for situations where you want the exact extent of your map to be preserved when others view your StoryMap. In the map options, make sure Map view is set to Preserve extent. If that is the case and you still see different extents on different screen sizes, please provide the link to the story so we can investigate. ... View more

@PhilipWeeks -- You can get the experience you are looking for using a sidecar in a StoryMap. In a sidecar, if you have the same app in sequential slides the app won't reload. You are able to have different hash parameters in different slides. Use the Embed block to insert the dashboard in the media panel of the sidecar and paste in the URLs you need. Please give this a try and let us know how it works for you. ... View more

@Hannah_H - If you have shared your maps with Everyone, you should see them when you select Public content when adding a map.  From there, you can search for specific items by name or itemID. If you want to see all the content from a particular account, you can search owner:[username] (without the brackets).     ... View more

@JElsinghorst - Sorry, but this is not in my area of expertise. I think you are more likely to get help with this question by posting on one of the 3D boards. ... View more

@JadahFrancisco Thanks for posting your questions. Line features are certainly supported in sidecars. You can add web maps or scenes that have line features or add line features in an express map. You can also add headings to a sidecar and create links to them from other parts of the story. For more information, see the "Easier link creation and other new link capabilities" section of What's new in ArcGIS StoryMaps (October 2023) and Add another dimension to your stories with heading links. ...

@BrandonGuo - Thanks for the demo story. I don't see any controls and your video is autoplaying for me. My guess is that you have reduced motion enabled in your browser or OS. When that is active, all videos appear as click-to-play to respect the user's preferences. ... View more

@BrandonGuo - Sorry you are seeing an inconsistency between your chosen options and how the video is behaving. Can you please provide some more information about where this video is placed? Are you able to share a link to the story (if it is public)? One thing you could try is this: switch to another playback option, save, and then switch back to Autoplay without controls and see if that fixes it. ... View more

@AnjaReimer0 -- This capability is not currently available from the ArcGIS StoryMaps content page, but you are able to organize your StoryMaps (and other types of items) in your ArcGIS Online/Enterprise content page using folders. ... View more

@SCVOSAGIS_Program - We are not able to reproduce the issue that was previously mentioned in this thread. We are also not seeing any similar issues in our other publishing tests. I would recommend that you plase continue to work with Esri Support on this so they can help troubleshoot what might be going on in your situation. ... View more

@AmyNewsam - Make sure that you duplicate the slide with the express map and then configure the next view with that duplicated slide. If you make a new express map, the map won't smoothly transition between views. Please let us know if this helps resolve the issue you are seeing. ... View more

Hi @JenniferBorlick - You can do this in the publish options. Just uncheck Update ArcGIS item details when publishing and the item details will no longer be overwritten.     ... View more

There is some documentation about this here. I don't believe there should be any issue with that. Make sure you initially sign in with the account you want to copy FROM first. Common Workflows | ArcGIS Assistant User Guide When copying a story between accounts (even accounts in the same organization), be sure to initiate the copy from the account that owns the story (or is an admin in the organization). ...

Oh, of course. Sorry, I forgot there was a JN video in that blog. 🙂 I think what you are referring to is simply the normal experience of navigating a live map. This is typical for all online maps as it's not possible to load in information for all areas at once, so the information is loaded on demand. If you wanted to have a smoother transition between specific places, you could create different maps focused on those different areas. That way when you transition from one slide to another you aren't changing the extent of the same map, you are actually loading a new map. I think that might get a similar experience to the one you are after. ... View more
