# Python
def SymmetricalDifference(
  self,
  _shape: TGIS_Shape,
  _returnnewobj: bool
) -> TGIS_Shape:

Name	Type	Description
_shape	TGIS_Shape	shape to compute symmetrical difference with
_returnnewobj	bool	if True, then result will be returned in a newly created object; if False, then self object will be returned

Type	Description
TGIS_Shape	If _returnnewobj=True, then returns newly created shape. Otherwise returns modified or unmodified self object.
