Remove from view takes the element off this view only; it stays in the model and in the other views. Delete from model removes it everywhere.
PageUp and PageDown change the view only from the drawing, the views rail and the status bar. In a panel or a list they scroll as usual.

On a phone or a tablet
On a phone, iyedy keeps only a few keys for a keyboard you connect: the command palette, the shortcut sheet, the views and Ctrl J for the Assistant. Touch gestures replace the rest: see A tour of the editor.
These docs
In these docs, Ctrl K opens the search, and Esc closes it. No single key does anything here, so nothing fires while you type.
