# DMSetBasicAdjacency
Set the flags for determining variable influence, using either the default or field 0 if it is defined 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdm.h"          
#include "petscdmlabel.h"     
#include "petscds.h"     
PetscErrorCode DMSetBasicAdjacency(DM dm, PetscBool useCone, PetscBool useClosure)
```
Not Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***dm         -*** The `DM` object
- ***useCone    -*** Flag for variable influence starting with the cone operation
- ***useClosure -*** Flag for variable influence using transitive closure





## Notes
```none
     FEM:   Two points p and q are adjacent if q \in closure(star(p)),   useCone = PETSC_FALSE, useClosure = PETSC_TRUE
     FVM:   Two points p and q are adjacent if q \in support(p+cone(p)), useCone = PETSC_TRUE,  useClosure = PETSC_FALSE
     FVM++: Two points p and q are adjacent if q \in star(closure(p)),   useCone = PETSC_TRUE,  useClosure = PETSC_TRUE
```
