KML Editor v1.5 (Preview Release) help  
Shortcut Menus

Depending on the selected object, a popup menu may be available and it will offer commands you can perform on the object.

Some popup menus are very limited, for example, in a text field, right-clicking it will offer Cut, Copy, Paste, Select All and Undo.

The My Place Tree has a popup menu where some commands can only be accessed here.
