Odoo 8.0: How to link menu items to correct views? How to link form view to correct tree view?

Question

Based on Create two graph view for one model openerp I've made 2 different tree views for one model in Odoo V8.0. This works fine.

But now I also want to add form views for those 2 tree views. When I add a form view in the .xml, everything becomes messed up. I've tried many different orders in de .xml but I can't really get it fixed.

When I just remove the form from the .xml, the form shows ALL fields of the model. I only want to display some of them.

This is my views.xml:

<openerp>
<data>

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="opc_instellingen_id">
    <field name="name">opc_taginstellingen_tree</field>
    <field name="model">opc_tags</field>
    <field name="type">tree</field>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <tree>
            <field name="tagnaam"/>
            <field name="lezenschrijven"/>
            <field name="logging"/>
            <field name="unit"/>
        </tree>
    </field>
</record>

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="opc_instellingen_id">
    <field name="name">opc_taginstellingen_form</field>
    <field name="model">opc_tags</field>
    <field name="type">form</field>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <form string="OPC Taginstellingen">
            <group colspan="1" col="4">
                <field name="tagnaam"/>
                <field name="lezenschrijven"/>
                <field name="logging"/>
                <field name="unit"/>
            </group>
        </form>
    </field>        
</record>

<record model="ir.ui.view" id="opc_actuele_waarden_id">
    <field name="name">opc_actuelewaardentags_tree</field>

    <field name="arch" type="xml">

<record id="action_taginstellingen" model="ir.actions.act_window">

    <field name="res_model">opc_tags</field>
    <field name="view_type">form</field>
    <field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
    <field name="view_id" ref="opc_actuele_waarden_id"/>
</record>

<menuitem id="Toplevel" name="OPC Instellingen"/>
<menuitem id="Submenu" parent="Toplevel" name="OPC Instellingen"/>
<menuitem action="action_taginstellingen" id="menu_taginstellingen_id" sequence="1" name="OPC Taginstellingen" parent="Submenu"/>
<menuitem action="action_tagwaarden" id="menu_tagwaarden_id" sequence="2" name="OPC Actuele waarden" parent="Submenu"/>

</data>
</openerp>

The problems with this .xml are:

When I click "OPC Taginstellingen" in the menu it shows the form "opc_taginstellingen_form" instead of the tree "opc_taginstellingen_tree".

When I click "OPC Actuele waarden" in the menu it shows the form "opc_actuelewaardentags_form" instead of the tree "opc_actuelewaardentags_tree".

When I change the view from form to list in the front-end, it just shows the title "Created by". So it doesn't go to "opc_taginstellingen_tree" "opc_actuelewaardentags_tree" at all.

How it should be:

When clicking "OPC Taginstellingen" in the menu: Show tree "opc_taginstellingen_tree". When clicking the button create ==> go to "opc_taginstellingen_form".

When clicking "OPC Actuele waarden" in the menu: Show tree "opc_actuelewaardentags_tree". When clicking the button create ==> go to "opc_actuelewaardentags_form".
