Hi there. The hamburger menu is hidden by default on linux. You can enable it in your .hyper.js file here: https://gist.github.com/juangl/74346eb89777775d4f841149ef16b20f#file-hyper-js-L33 by setting showHamburgerMenu to true.

In Mint 18.1 Cinnamon, setting showHamburgerMenu to true doesn't seem to change anything.

@matheuss @brychanrobot this happened to me on Arch also.

Same in Elementary 0.4

Same on Ubuntu GNOME 16.10, with showHamburgerMenu set to true

Same for me on Linux Mint 18, no matter what value showHamburgerMenu is set to.
It might have to do with the window being borderless and the window decorations being applied differently based on the desktop environement.

In my case, I cannot access any of the menus of Hyper. It might be related to the shortcuts issue I'm having, as https://github.com/zeit/hyper/pull/1058 didn't fix it.

Could you guys make sure that you're using showHamburgerMenu: true instead of showHamburgerMenu: 'true'?

[connorgolden]

Ahh, tried messing with the quotes and what ended up working is: showHamburgerMenu: true (no quotes at all) That seemed to work for me. Can others confirm?

Removing quotes worked for me too.

That worked indeed. Instead of "without backticks", it should say "without backticks and without quotes".

A lot of users are confused.
@Jop-V your proposal can help. PR is welcome 😄

Why is this showHamburgerMenu false by default on Linux? It's extremely poor UX. On Ubuntu 17.10 running KDE Plasma Desktop, I couldn't see any menu at all without enabling this.
