Can I merge/intersect two views?

Can I create a view that displays the union or intersection of two different views?
Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

Looks like adding multiple filters does the job...

Of course!

Not all the job...

Filters are good for doing intersections, but not unions because elements are ANDed and not ORed.

You can do some unions, for example you could list different node types by ommiting those node types you don't want and choosing all the others, but is not totally flexible (at least at this time).

What If

What if I want to show 2 content types together but am using different custom fields for each one as a filter? Each type only has one of the custom fields.

You may also be interested in the ViewsFusion.module... It merges views as well. If I understand it correctly.

Panels using Views Panes

i found that views fusion is not easy to use and views union doesn't render the content correctly (really bizarre). what works great is making a views pane from each of the views you want to merge (and yes, you can merge as many as you can put on the page) and then creating a panel page to hold those panes.

If you make use of a lot of

If you make use of a lot of views, you may think about looking into the Active Template module. It is currently only for D5 but it would seem people are interested in having it for D6 so we may able to get that updated in the next few weeks...
