Touches Dialog

The spatial relation touches dialog window allows users to identify any geometry A that spatially touches any geometry B. A geometry touches another geometry if they have at least one point in common but their interiors do not intersect.

The dialog controls are:

• Features To Use From Layer A
  
  A dropdown list box that specifies what features in layer A to process.
