[support] How to create "Edit & Save" Action?

[Michael Prasuhn]

Depending on what you are doing with the viewfield, you may be better  
served with the View Attach module. You can check it out here:

http://drupal.org/project/views_attach

The place where this would be most useful, is when you are using a  
viewfield to attach a view that is the same for every node of a  
certain type. This is very common in image galleries for instance,  
where you may want to reference all nodes that have a node reference  
to the current node. This allows you to setup the view, and attach it  
to all nodes of a specific type.
