OpenERP specify multiple view references on "view_id" - odoo

Question

I extended "hr.employee" class. (Inherited and gave the same name to the new one).
I defined two views (tree and form) and a menu:
<record model="ir.ui.view" id="my_employee_tree">
<field name="name">hr.employee.tree</field>
<field name="model">hr.employee</field>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
...
</field>
</record>
<record id="view_my_hr_employee_form" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">hr.employee.form</field>
<field name="model">hr.employee</field>
<field name="arch" type="xml">
...
</field>
</record>
<record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="action_my_hr_employee_seq">
<field name="name">Angajati</field>
<field name="res_model">hr.employee</field>
<field name="view_type">form</field>
<field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
<field name="view_id" ref="view_my_hr_employee_form"/>
</record>
<menuitem id="menu_project_hr_base" parent="menu_project_utcn_project_base_main" name="HR"/>
<menuitem action="action_my_hr_employee_seq" id="menu_action_employee_form" name ="Angajati" parent="menu_project_hr_base"/>
What I want to do is to get the original views from hr.employee view when i use the original module, and to get my defined views when i use my module.
As you can see, I have specified "view_id" reference to my form view, but how can i define a reference also to my tree view? And I want the tree view to be shown first, and form view as alternative. How can i specify this?
<field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
seems not to work if i add reference to form view

You have to map your action with particular tree,form view.
Try this:
<record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="action_my_hr_employee_seq">
<field name="name">Angajati</field>
<field name="res_model">hr.employee</field>
<field name="view_type">form</field>
<field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
</record>
<record model="ir.actions.act_window.view" id="act_hr_employee_tree_view">
<field eval="1" name="sequence"/>
<field name="view_mode">tree</field>
<field name="view_id" ref="your_tree_view_id"/>
<field name="act_window_id" ref="action_my_hr_employee_seq"/>
</record>
<record model="ir.actions.act_window.view" id="act_hr_employee_form_view">
<field eval="2" name="sequence"/>
<field name="view_mode">form</field>
<field name="view_id" ref="your_form_view_id"/>
<field name="act_window_id" ref="action_my_hr_employee_seq"/>
</record>
