MOSAIC mode allows multi-display target scan out from a single source.
The following is an example of a MOSAIC 1x4 topology with 8-pixel horizontal overlap:

| #define NV_MOSAIC_MAX_TOPO_PER_TOPO_GROUP 2 |
This defines the maximum number of topos that can be in a topo group. At this time, it is set to 2 because our largest topo group (passive stereo) only needs 2 topos (left eye and right eye).
If a new topo group with more than 2 topos is added above, then this number will also have to be incremented.

This structure is used to contain a list of supported Mosaic topologies along with the display settings that can be used.
| enum NV_MOSAIC_TOPO |
This is a complete list of supported Mosaic topologies.
Using a "Basic" topology combines multiple monitors to create a single desktop.
Using a "Passive" topology combines multiples monitors to create a passive stereo desktop. In passive stereo, two identical topologies combine - one topology is used for the right eye and the other identical //! topology (targeting different displays) is used for the left eye.
NOTE: common\inc\nvEscDef.h shadows a couple PASSIVE_STEREO enums. If this enum list changes and effects the value of NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_BEGIN_PASSIVE_STEREO please update the corresponding value in nvEscDef.h
| enum NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_TYPE |
These values refer to the different types of Mosaic topologies that are possible. When getting the supported Mosaic topologies, you can specify one of these types to narrow down the returned list to only those that match the given type.

| NVAPI_INTERFACE NvAPI_Mosaic_GetSupportedTopoInfo | ( | NV_MOSAIC_SUPPORTED_TOPO_INFO * | pSupportedTopoInfo, |
| NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_TYPE | type | ||
| ) |
DESCRIPTION: This API returns information on the topologies and display resolutions supported by Mosaic mode.
NOTE: Not all topologies returned can be set immediately. See 'OUT' Notes below.
Once you get the list of supported topologies, you can call NvAPI_Mosaic_GetTopoGroup() with one of the Mosaic topologies if you need more information about it.
'IN' Notes: pSupportedTopoInfo->version must be set before calling this function. If the specified version is not supported by this implementation, an error will be returned (NVAPI_INCOMPATIBLE_STRUCT_VERSION).
'OUT' Notes: Some of the topologies returned might not be valid for one reason or another. It could be due to mismatched or missing displays. It could also be because the required number of GPUs is not found. At a high level, you can see if the topology is valid and can be enabled by looking at the pSupportedTopoInfo->topoBriefs[xxx].isPossible flag. If this is true, the topology can be enabled. If it is false, you can find out why it cannot be enabled by getting the details of the topology via NvAPI_Mosaic_GetTopoGroup(). From there, look at the validityMask of the individual topologies. The bits can be tested against the NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_VALIDITY_* bits.
It is possible for this function to return NVAPI_OK with no topologies listed in the return structure. If this is the case, it means that the current hardware DOES support Mosaic, but with the given configuration no valid topologies were found. This most likely means that SLI was not enabled for the hardware. Once enabled, you should see valid topologies returned from this function.
SUPPORTED OS: Windows 7 and higher
| [in,out] | pSupportedTopoInfo | Information about what topologies and display resolutions are supported for Mosaic. |
| [in] | type | The type of topologies the caller is interested in getting. See NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_TYPE for possible values. |
| NVAPI_OK | No errors in returning supported topologies. |
| NVAPI_NOT_SUPPORTED | Mosaic is not supported with the existing hardware. |
| NVAPI_INVALID_ARGUMENT | One or more arguments passed in are invalid. |
| NVAPI_API_NOT_INTIALIZED | The NvAPI API needs to be initialized first. |

| NVAPI_INTERFACE NvAPI_Mosaic_GetTopoGroup | ( | NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_BRIEF * | pTopoBrief, |
| NV_MOSAIC_TOPO_GROUP * | pTopoGroup | ||
| ) |
DESCRIPTION: This API returns a structure filled with the details of the specified Mosaic topology.
If the pTopoBrief passed in matches the current topology, then information in the brief and group structures will reflect what is current. Thus the brief would have the current 'enable' status, and the group would have the current overlap values. If there is no match, then the returned brief has an 'enable' status of FALSE (since it is obviously not enabled), and the overlap values will be 0.
'IN' Notes: pTopoGroup->version must be set before calling this function. If the specified version is not supported by this implementation, an error will be returned (NVAPI_INCOMPATIBLE_STRUCT_VERSION).
SUPPORTED OS: Windows 7 and higher
| [in] | pTopoBrief | The topology for getting the details This must be one of the topology briefs returned from NvAPI_Mosaic_GetSupportedTopoInfo(). |

| NvS32 | overlapX, | ||
| NvS32 | overlapY, | ||
| NvU32 | enable | ||
| ) |
DESCRIPTION: This API sets the Mosaic topology and performs a mode switch using the given display settings.
If NVAPI_OK is returned, the current Mosaic topology was set correctly. Any other status returned means the topology was not set, and remains what it was before this function was called.
SUPPORTED OS: Windows 7 and higher
| [in] | pTopoBrief | The topology to set. This must be one of the topologies returned from NvAPI_Mosaic_GetSupportedTopoInfo(), and it must have an isPossible value of 1. |
| [in] | pDisplaySetting | The per display settings to be used in the Mosaic mode. This must be one of the settings returned from NvAPI_Mosaic_GetSupportedTopoInfo(). |
| [in] | overlapX | The pixel overlap to use between horizontal displays (use positive a number for overlap, or a negative number to create a gap.) If the overlap is out of bounds for what is possible given the topo and display setting, the overlap will be clamped. |
| [in] | overlapY | The pixel overlap to use between vertical displays (use positive a number for overlap, or a negative number to create a gap.) If the overlap is out of bounds for what is possible given the topo and display setting, the overlap will be clamped. |
| [in] | enable | If 1, the topology being set will also be enabled, meaning that the mode set will occur. If 0, you don't want to be in Mosaic mode right now, but want to set the current Mosaic topology so you can enable it later with NvAPI_Mosaic_EnableCurrentTopo(). |
| NVAPI_OK | The Mosaic topology was set. |
| NVAPI_NOT_SUPPORTED | Mosaic is not supported with the existing hardware. |
| NVAPI_INVALID_ARGUMENT | One or more argumentss passed in are invalid. |
| NVAPI_TOPO_NOT_POSSIBLE | The topology passed in is not currently possible. |

| ) |
DESCRIPTION: Sets a new display topology, replacing any existing topologies that use the same displays.
This function will look for an SLI configuration that will allow the display topology to work.
To revert to a single display, specify that display as a 1x1 grid.
SUPPORTED OS: Windows 7 and higher
| [in] | pGridTopologies | The topology details to set. |
| [in] | gridCount | The number of elements in the pGridTopologies array. |

| __in NvU32 | gridCount | ||
| ) |
DESCRIPTION: Determines if a list of grid topologies is valid. It will choose an SLI configuration in the same way that NvAPI_Mosaic_SetDisplayGrids() does.
On return, each element in the pTopoStatus array will contain any errors or warnings about each grid topology. If any error flags are set, then the topology is not valid. If any warning flags are set, then the topology is valid, but sub-optimal.
If the ALLOW_INVALID flag is set, then it will continue to validate the grids even if no SLI configuration will allow all of the grids. In this case, a grid grid with no matching GPU topology will have the error flags NO_GPU_TOPOLOGY or NOT_SUPPORTED set.
If the ALLOW_INVALID flag is not set and no matching SLI configuration is found, then it will skip the rest of the validation and return NVAPI_NO_ACTIVE_SLI_TOPOLOGY.
SUPPORTED OS: Windows 7 and higher
