ArcGIS Pro 2.7 API Reference Guide
GetFeaturesEx Method
Example 

ArcGIS.Desktop.Mapping Namespace > MapView Class : GetFeaturesEx Method
The geometry used to identify features that intersect it.
Indicates whether only features that visibly intersect the geometry should be returned.
This parameter only applies to 2D. Indicates whether only features that are completely within the geometry should be returned.
Return features that intersect a geometry. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
Syntax
Public Function GetFeaturesEx( _
   ByVal geometry As Geometry, _
   Optional ByVal visualIntersect As Boolean, _
   Optional ByVal whollyWithin As Boolean _
) As Dictionary(Of Layer,List(Of Long))

Parameters

geometry
The geometry used to identify features that intersect it.
visualIntersect
Indicates whether only features that visibly intersect the geometry should be returned.
whollyWithin
This parameter only applies to 2D. Indicates whether only features that are completely within the geometry should be returned.

Return Value

The collection of layers and object ids that intersect the geometry.
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.
3D views only support selecting features interactively using geometry in screen coordinates relative to the top-left corner of the view
Example
Create a tool that allows you to sketch in the view and return the features that intersect the sketch.
