Files App - Sidebar

I am currently using a PDF file in the files app to take notes. But the sidebar (used to easily scroll to different pages in the document) is frustrating me! I am using an Apple Pencil to take notes, but my hand keeps hitting the sidebar while I am writing. Is there a way to hide the sidebar or at least move it to the other side of the screen? It’s very frustrating.

iPad Pro, iOS 13

ipadOS markup–can you move PDF page "scrollbar" to the left? I'm using markup (ipadOS 14.7) with the Pencil 2 to annotate documents. Generally, this works great. But for long documents, the page "scrollbar" appears on the right side of the page and as a right-handed user, my hand is constantly changing pages when I put my hand on the iPad to write with the Pencil. Is there any way to move the markup/PDF page "scrollbar" to the left? or hide it?

Is there a way to rearrange the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) markup order? In the notes app, I would like to rearrange the order of the markup options, instead of having to scroll to a tool that I use at the back and front of the tool options given.

Side bar missing in Notes app While I was peviously unable to locate the side bar icon in Notes, I was able to find it by right clicking (or two finger clicking) on the tool bar where the side bar icon would normally be located in Notes (top left side), and drag/drop to that location.
