These options apply when a story is viewed on a large screen such as a laptop, desktop, or tablet held in landscape orientation.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1159012,"id":1159012,"title":"","filename":"Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","filesize":24859,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-storymaps\/constituent-engagement\/whats-new-in-arcgis-storymaps-march-2021\/screen-shot-2021-03-09-at-3-53-19-pm","alt":"New display options for embeds on large screens","author":"5441","description":"","caption":"","name":"screen-shot-2021-03-09-at-3-53-19-pm","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1158812,"date":"2021-03-09 20:53:40","modified":"2021-03-09 20:53:49","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1036,"height":338,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":151,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":251,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","large-width":1036,"large-height":338,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","1536x1536-width":1036,"1536x1536-height":338,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","2048x2048-width":1036,"2048x2048-height":338,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM-826x269.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":269,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-09-at-3.53.19-PM.jpg","wide_image-width":1036,"wide_image-height":338}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<p>The first option removes the click-to-interact panel that appears over live embeds.
