# DMSnapToGeomModel

Given a coordinate point ‘mcoords’ on the mesh point ‘p’, return the closest coordinate point ‘gcoords’ on the geometry model associated with that point.

## Synopsis

    #include "petscdm.h"
    PetscErrorCode DMSnapToGeomModel(DM dm, PetscInt p, PetscInt dE, const PetscScalar mcoords[], PetscScalar gcoords[])

Not Collective

## Input Parameters

- dm - The `DMPLEX` object

- p - The mesh point

- dE - The coordinate dimension

- mcoords - A coordinate point lying on the mesh point

## Output Parameter

- gcoords - The closest coordinate point on the geometry model associated with ‘p’ to the given point

## Note

Returns the original coordinates if no geometry model is found.

The coordinate dimension may be different from the coordinate dimension of the `dm`, for example if the transformation is extrusion.
