# MatFDColoringView

Views a finite difference coloring context.

### Synopsis

    #include "petscmat.h"
    PetscErrorCode  MatFDColoringView(MatFDColoring c,PetscViewer viewer)

Collective on MatFDColoring

### Input Parameters

| c | - the coloring context
| viewer | - visualization context

### Notes

The available visualization contexts include

| PETSC_VIEWER_STDOUT_SELF | - standard output (default)
| PETSC_VIEWER_STDOUT_WORLD | - synchronized standard output where only the first processor opens the file. All other processors send their data to the first processor to print.
| PETSC_VIEWER_DRAW_WORLD | - graphical display of nonzero structure

### Notes

Since PETSc uses only a small number of basic colors (currently 33), if the coloring involves more than 33 then some seemingly identical colors are displayed making it look like an illegal coloring. This is just a graphical artifact.
