Answer 3

You can find most of these samples in the Metro style app samples at http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps , although I think there are only C# versions of these and not VB.

Context menu: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Context-menu-sample-40840351

Basic Toasts: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Basic-Toasts-Sample-18f46c14

Advanced Toasts: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Advanced-Toasts-Sample-749306df

MessageDialog: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/MessageDialog-sample-243ce23e

 

There isn't currently a Xaml Flyout control, so there is no sample demonstrating how to use it.  The Charms bar doesn't have any direct programmatic access.  The individual charms can be hooked into via appropriate contracts (Search, Sharing, Playto, Settings).  You can type the name of the item you're interested in into the search box on the samples page to find samples on the topics you're interested in.

Answer 5

You can't add your own buttons to the charms bar, if that is what you are asking.
