Ok. If you want in frontend editing add new content elements you need
the edit panels. They needs to TS template this setting

config.admPanel=1

and in TS config for users/user groups for example this config

admPanel {
enable.all=1
module.edit.forceNoPopup = 0
module.edit.forceDisplayIcons = 1
module.edit.forceDisplayFieldIcons=1
hide=0
}

not possible in frontend. In frontend you must create a new content 
element. You can't use existing as a "model" or "template".

That doesn't work well in Column view either without a plugin

yes - as stand alone 'gb_begranddrop' or integrated into 
'tm_contentaccess', which has for example intergrated 'kb_pm_paste'
- it is possible to paste content elements into empty columns in the 
columns view. You *can't* get them both using stand-alone plugins - they 
work together only as integrated.
