Map Choreography: How to make an ArcGIS StoryMap sing and dance

An ArcGIS StoryMap is just a great way to present a geographic narrative. Here's some advice about how to set up a scene in a StoryMap where you zoom and fly around in a map to guide the reader through just what you want them to see. The map is brimming with stories. You are the choreographer.
Here are links to some of the examples you saw in this video:

    In your last StoryMap you have tabs at the top. How do you add tabs in StoryMap?

    at the top of your story, choose the "Design" button, which slides open a panel of options for your story. In it, there's a section called "Optional story sections". Activate the "Navigation" option. Here's more info: doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-storymaps/author-and-share/add-story-navigation.htm

    hey everyone i have a Storymaps problem I really need help with. I am trying to make a storymap of projects in different phases (complete, under construction, etc). I currently have it set up where i have my webmap with the layers that have the polygons on them and a sidecar with a list of the project names. each project name has a map action associated so that when you click on the project name in the sidecar, the map zooms to that project area. BUT i also want it to open the attribute table for that project when it zooms so you can see the project date, cost, and other info. i can not figure out how to do this in the new version of storymaps, please help!!!!

    if it were me, i'd format the layer's popup to look and show what i wanted, and have that open in the map action. i think you can have a popup automatically open via a map action.
