This is a pretty cool User Interface Microsoft enhancement that was found in Windows 10 Build 10036.

It involves the look and feel of contextual menus and how they change depending on whether you’re using Touch or Keyboard.

As you know, we have described Continuum and how Windows will adapt to whatever form factor it’s being used in.

This is more specific because it shows how menus will adapt to touch usage as well as keyboards and mice.

Here’s a look at what the menu will look like for a keyboard and mouse.

As you can see, it’s relatively slim spacing from item to item.

Check out what the same menu would look like with touch based recognition.

You can see the spacing between items is increased to account for fingertips.

Very cool…
