It needs a chain descriptor. Right now there is no way to test for chain descriptors (one could imagine, perhaps, "and chain='A'" for example, but that is not available.
However, there is a simple way to do ANY complex selection. Simply create the full select command as a string and then execute it using script inline. So: var x = "select resno=xres and :" + x[i] script inline @x Also, I don't think that @{x[i]} notation will work. There are a couple of ways you could do this, though.
