Right Click Feature Menus

The Avada Builder right click feature gives you largely common choices for the various assets. The main differences are the paste options for Elements vs. Columns vs. Containers. Please see below examples of what the menu looks like, and the list of the options available, when you right click on Containers, Columns, or Elements.
