You can change the virtual device to render a different layout. If you like to have a device without the soft-key button. You need to add your own "New Device Definition" with "New Hardware Profile".

Remember to uncheck "Has Hardware Button" in "New Hardware Profile".

You should see your new hardware profile after restarting Android Studio
