Hm, you could always hunt through your list of auxiliary DMS to find something of the same size?

The advice I got previously was to use DMCoarsenHookAdd and DMRefineHookAdd. I finally managed to make sense of the example that Jed pointed out (SNES ex48.c), which was helpful. However, I thought that since the same coarsening and refinement would be used repeatedly, I could just keep everything around at all times, like example KSP ex42.c, using DMRefineHierarchy. I managed to get that working with grid sequencing. However, I can't seem to generalize to FAS, because in my FormFunction routine, I need to be able to determine which of the auxiliary DMs from the hierarchy corresponds to the current scale. With grid sequencing, I could use DMGetRefineLevel. Is it possible to do something similar with FAS? Is it completely stupid to try to do it this way? Thanks for any help.
