how can i get the menu screen when i push the menu button.

[AC Question]

i have a galaxy s4 L720VPUGP12. When i push menu button I get the swipe screen then the keypad. I don't want the keypad. I'm not asking for the keypad. I want the menu screen. I have tried several launchers and none of them solve the problem. I should be able to push the menu button, get the swipe screen then the menu screen. That makes perfect sense. What happens now makes no sense.
