Overview

The Mosaic consists of two main components – Superking Gutters and an Expanding Medium Rectangle (or Half Page).

On user initiation the MREC/Half Page unfolds as a series of tiles to expand across the full content area. Within this overlay, clients can host multiple images, videos and other rich media content within the expansion. Dimensions of the Mosaic overlay are the same as the Sidewinder.
