As more and more complex proteins are being examined (thanks to faster clusters), working without segname would be practically impossible in the frame of today pdb files.

The symbol for intersection is “&” ... in other words, you could use<br>
<br>
select :17 & @/pdbSegment=A1<br>

Intersection and union symbols are explained here:<br>
