I added some screenshots, don't you see them?!

Wasn't showing then maybe some problem with the app...
But nice concept though...like it....although it would take time for developers to implement it sometime un the near future, it would be able to satisfy all those people how want hamburgers and then those who doesn't and the list goes on and on...

I actually think this is one of the best implementations.

Very easy to reach, very rich in content.

Looks very much like menus from 8.1.

Pretty good, also had a similar idea but your implementation is better!

Feedback:
Perhaps add icons to the menu section (I'm aware this is the same menu as the one drive app, just want to see how it looks for comparison :)) and utilise the space on the right a tad more if possible?

In the about screen the links are some what congested, they would need spreading out so you could increase the font size a tad bit so it is easier to read and tap otherwise I can see some people tapping two links at the same time.
.
In the account screen, move the +add account a few pixels to the bottom and increase the font size a little.

Well, congratulations!

I think this is the best concept I've seen yet. If this allows me to switch between menu, options, accounts, and about by swiping left/right rather than tapping I think that might work really well!

I think this would also fit well with how touch office is already intended to work.

The best thing about this is that it removes the hamburger entirely and integrates a more powerful menu system into the ellipsis menu.

P.S. I would also support the suggestions TechFreak1 mentioned above.

I prefer the WCentral post with Combined Pivot/Hamburger

The combined pivot/hamburger is an insufficient solution that achieves nothing beyond unified cosmetics.

WCentral staff were probably out late partying when they cast their support behind that approach.

This thread explains why the combined approach doesn't actually solve a single one of WP's navigational UI problems (it brings us no farther than we already are with WP8.1):

This concept represents a far better step towards a real solution.

Now i get it.. I also think that there can be Scrolling of options under each Section. that will give better size and readability...
what you feel?
