Background:
At 3.2.1, I need to select features from one polygon layer that are:
- external to a second polygon layer, and
- touch the second layer
Using the Arcgis Pro Select by Location graphic, I am referring to examples I and J:
I have not found an option that has this granularity. I have also tested options using the Invert Spatial Relationship option, as well as sequentially chaining various options, all without success.
Question:
How to select polygons from one layer that externally touch the polygons of a second layer?

Howerver I think invert a Relationsship is the key in two steps.
