After I type ./ex5 -help | grep view, it comes out a list of options related to _view, all of which have the tag <FALSE>, what does this mean? The <FALSE> is the current value. They are all false because you have not turned them on. IF you are using the release version, the viewing option is -da_view. The -dm_view is the new version which we are about to release.

It depends on PETSc version number. When using the graphics want you generally want a -draw_pause -1 to stop that program at the graphic otherwise it pops up and disappears immediately.
