Enable the "Allow customizations" option in views.
On this page:
Rationale
Notes enables users to customize how information is displayed in views when the views have been designed with the "allow customizations" option set. This enhancement allows you to use the keyboard to sort view columns, hide or display columns in the view and specify vertical spacing between rows in the view. Without this option, someone who cannot use the mouse will not be able to modify the view to meet their needs. The "Allow customizations" option is enabled by default.
This feature is only supported in Notes 6 or later.
