    • "administer layout canvas configure" - This will remove the configure button in the layout canvas and visual page builder node dropdown (provided a user has the ability to configure components)
    • "administer layout canvas delete" - This will remove the delete button in the layout canvas node dropdown and visual page builder component toolbar dropdown, it will remove the keyboard commands to delete a layout canvas node
    • "administer layout canvas drag" - This will remove drag and drop on the layout canvas and visual page builder
    • "administer layout canvas duplicate" - This will remove the duplicate button on the layout canvas node dropdown and visual page builder component toolbar dropdown, it will also remove the keyboard shortcut to duplicate.
    • "administer layout canvas edit" - This will remove the edit button on the layout canvas dropdown and visual page builder component toolbar, it will also remove being able to double click a layout canvas node.
    • "administer layout canvas save" - This will remove the save button for the layout canvas node dropdown and visual page builder component toolbar dropdown, and it will remove the save button in the layout canvas and visual page builder canvas dropdown
