When I fist found the issue, I was running the game at 2736x1730, and as you can see in the first image it clearly had enough space. However, this is now fixed for me and works normally since 17w14a. However, someone commented they are still experiencing it at a resolution of 1600x1200. I don't know if this is still happening, but when I fist used it in 17w13a, the functionality wouldn't work, not just the menu overlay, but I don't know if that is still the case for other people in 17w18a, because it no longer affects me.
This same thing happens to me! What is the aspect ratio of your device? For me, it works as intended if I play the game at 16:9 or lower (vertically), but not any higher than that, which makes it hard to use on my 3:2 screen.
