Thanks for all this feedback! It means a lot!
Some I still have to understand and maybe spiders or krisekrise will reply too since they are more deep in the code-side of WW (love the shorthandle haha)

Are you on PC with a 3-Button-Mouse?
If not, this might be the reason, but otherwise try to use the Middle-Mouse-Button! By holding it you should be able to rotate in the current room and when holding Shift and the MIddle-Mouse-Button you should be able to move in the current room without the need to zoom! Hope I understood your problem and this might help you.

Additionally you have a select button in the middle/top UI with which you can select sprites. On the right, the sprite-edit window should appear and there is a delete button.

A different and hacky approach that might be useful in other cases is to select the sprite on the left and replace it with an invisible one. This way you can replace certain sprites with one click in every room (very handy for exits)

And you should give Nancy Goo another try! It just takes reaaaaaally long to load :]

Cosmo (maker of WT [Whimtale]) has made such an amazing engine (combines Bitsy elements with Twine [Blocks]), and he's been really responsive and helpful!

And the five of you here seem to have just as helpful a forum/community! It's so good to see, especially since itch.io is an incredible website for developers and indie game-makers.

Sorry, forgot to say that I currently use a Chromebook, but thanks to your suggestion, I'll definitely look for a KB Shortcut for a Middle Mouse Button!

And you're right on the money with that awesome tip for how to Delete a Sprite in a Room; it's probably the Most Overlooked feature in WW and I definitely should have noticed it sooner, THANK YOU!!!

As for Nancy Goo, I reached-out to the creator (no reply yet) and I figure there's nothing more that can be done, as I've Waited literally Five+ Minutes, but it never gets that far, as it tends to CRASH and I'm Forced to Reload the WebPage.

Thanks so much for the help!

UPDATE: Just tried Pressing (Click-Hold [NOT Tap-Hold!]) 3 Fingers on TrackPad and then Scroll Around, which WORKS to Rotate the WW Map/Room, in case other CB Users need to know this! Thanks again for your help, as you've answered all my questions!
