ifSpringboardScreen.SetDisplayMode() - what does it do?

Sounds like this is from a slide-show screen but what would it do for a roSpringboardScreen?
What slideshow images, scaled to completely fill which screen? Is there some undocumented meta-magic (like background image) or?

    Looks like a copy-paste error. SetDisplayMode changes the way the HDPosterUrl/SDPosterUrl is scaled when displayed in the upper left of the springboard.
