# DMPlexRestoreTransitiveClosure
Restore the array of points on the transitive closure of the in-edges or out-edges for this point in the DAG
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdmplex.h"
PetscErrorCode DMPlexRestoreTransitiveClosure(DM dm, PetscInt p, PetscBool useCone, PetscInt *numPoints, PetscInt *points[])
```
Not Collective
## Input Parameters
- ***dm -*** The `DMPLEX`
- ***p -*** The mesh point
- ***useCone -*** `PETSC_TRUE` for the closure, otherwise return the star
- ***numPoints -*** The number of points in the closure, so points[] is of size 2*`numPoints`
- ***points -*** The points and point orientations, interleaved as pairs [p0, o0, p1, o1, ...]
## Note
If not using internal storage (points is not `NULL` on input), this call is unnecessary
