# KSPMonitorSNESResidualDrawLG
Plots the linear `KSP` residual norm and the `SNES` residual norm at each iteration of an iterative solver. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petsc/private/snesimpl.h"   
PetscErrorCode KSPMonitorSNESResidualDrawLG(KSP ksp, PetscInt n, PetscReal rnorm, PetscViewerAndFormat *vf)
```
Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***ksp   -*** iterative context
- ***n     -*** iteration number
- ***rnorm -*** 2-norm (preconditioned) residual value (may be estimated).
- ***vf    -*** The viewer context, created with `KSPMonitorSNESResidualDrawLGCreate()`



## Options Database Key

- ***-snes_monitor_ksp draw::draw_lg -*** Activates `KSPMonitorSNESResidualDrawLG()`



## Note
This is not called directly by users, rather one calls `SNESMonitorSet()`, with this function as an argument, to cause the monitor
to be used during the `SNESSolve()`




## See Also
