include view selecting master display only [#1421532]

Hello,
first of all thank you for this great module! While selecting a custom view into the pdf view via the "include view" field, I can't seem to understand how to select a specific display for it. The only display that gets returned is the Master one. Am I missing something or is it not possible yet to select the view display into the field?
Thank you in advance

The display is meant to be automatically determined.
But it does not display the unformatted PDF display included.

[EDIT] It seems that arguments of the included are mandatory. This solved the issue for me.

Seems to be fixed. You need to have a PDF display in the included view. You cannot include the master view or any other types of view, but the PDF view.

I'm reopening this because I had the same problem. If a display with id pdf_1 is not found, the code falls back to using the default display. In my case I had cloned a view and subsequently deleted the original pdf_1, so my included view now has a display with id pdf_2 and no pdf_1.

I've rolled a patch that looks for the first display with an id of pdf_x and sets that one. If a pdf display is not found it reverts to the default master display as before.

This is not a perfect solution. Ideally it would be possible to choose the display in the settings for the Include View field. There is an open support request for that feature here: Choose a display on the views_field_view module.
