I agree. I think having mixed geometries per layer can make things a
hell of a lot harder and I would rather have a single geom type per
layer. I used to use MapInfo and it can store different geom types in
one layer, this makes it hard to style (more of a limitation of
MapInfo I admit), hard to
.kml can also be opened easily in QGIS, but editing is not possible.

Not all kml can be opened. I have created some of my own, with links to
external symbols. Qgis won't load that files, and gives no error
messages. In Google maps and Google Earth they

No change, but:
Importing kml gives a list of layers to select. If I dont select
anything, i get nothing ;-)

Andre is right - qgis (like other gis systems too) cannot display
points, lines and polygons in one layer. It has to be either points or
lines or polygons. In a kml-file this is no problem.
So if you try to load a kml-file with points, lines and polygons, qgis
just loads the first object (and

Just convert your kml to shapefile, then you can easily open shapefile in QGIS.
You can use OGR2OGR to convert kml to shapefile in FWTools

Sir,
I exported a kml file consisting of roads, paths and lines from My places

However I am able to open a Google earth kml file consisting of only points
