API call to query Direct Vs Extended Mode?

Hi,

I looked but didn't see a way in SDK 4+ to query the runtime and find out if it's set to Extended or Direct. This seems like something quite basic, I'm probably overlooking it, can somebody point me in the right direction? We're using D3D for rendering.

Many thanks in advance,
Pete

    if(HMD->HmdCaps & ovrHmdCap_ExtendDesktop)
    {
    cout << "running in \"extended desktop\" mode" << endl;
    }
