Showing menu bar in sublime-text 3

Question

I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and I got the Sublime Text editor from here.... http://sublimetext.com/3

I've googled this a lot and even after doing Alt+V I don't see an option to 'Show Menu'.

Here is a section of my .config/sublime-text-3/Local/Session.sublime_session:

"menu_visible": true,
"output.find_results":
{
    "height": 0.0
},

and

"distraction_free":
{
    "menu_visible": true,
    "show_minimap": false,
    "show_open_files": false,
    "show_tabs": false,
    "side_bar_visible": false,
    "status_bar_visible": false
},

But I can see the menu bar neither in default state nor in Distraction Free mode

I'm at a loss as to how to see the menu bar. I have an unregistered version by the way.

Answer 1

If the above solution doesn't work for someone, try:

dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
setsid unity

This should work ! I was having this problem with other apps too... So I just reset the whole thing.

Answer 2

In case there are other Linux/Ubuntu/Gnome Desktop Environment n00bs out there, like me, note that the menus may appear at the top of the screen rather than the top of the window, as per the screen shot below:
