I was testing Views Attach with Views 3.0 alpha3 and discovered that all the attached views inherited the "items to display" count from the view they were attached to (as well as the offset, etc). There seem to be a way to separate the page's settings from the attached view's settings.

Details:
The "Items to display" link is not present in Views 3 as a separate option but rather nested inside "Use Pager:" under "Basic settings". This setting does not seem to be present in the attached view at all, instead the view references the page's "pager" settings, essentially disabling the ability to output a different number of nodes from the primary view.

I'm not sure if the issue was addressed in the latest dev version of views attach, and i didn't see any other mention of this in the issue queue so I thought it best to mention it here.

I'm getting a different behaviour with the stable release of Views 3: An attached view outputs always exactly one result, no matter what pager settings are defined in any display. Anything that relys on Views attach to show more than one item will break. It's simply incompatible with Views 3, so the decision is to either stick with Views 2 and use Views attach, or to upgrade to Views 3 and dump Views attach.

Too bad that this module appears to be abandoned, as so many others :-(
