Windows 10 - Charms Bar: Start Menu v4

Description

A concept of what a Windows 10 Charms Bar can look like when 'continuum' (touch mode) is activated on 8" to 13" devices.
The Charms Bar retains certain Windows 8 features while incorporating some of the Task Bar's functionality.

In Windows 8 the Windows Button on the charms bar launched the start screen. It also displayed a search button for quick access.
Instead of launching the start screen the Windows button now opens the start menu incorporating the search bar and Cortana.

I decided to put the search bar next to the start button to decrease 'travel' time and make it a more fluid experience.

Version 4 and 1 is same but the search bar has different colors.
A user can select the spyglass to activate Cortana or type their query into the search bar.
By accessing the drop-down menus (next to the headings) users can decides which information is displayed, e.g. 'all apps', 'my computer', 'people', 'music' etc.
The Start Menu can also be customized according to a user's preference, e.g. list view, live tiles or both.
