+# XPath Patterns for Odoo View Inheritance
+
+## Common XPath Positions
+
+- `before` - Insert before the target element
+- `after` - Insert after the target element
+- `inside` - Insert inside the target element (as last child)
+- `replace` - Replace the target element entirely
+- `attributes` - Add/modify attributes of the target element
+
+## Examples
+
+### Add Field After Another Field
+```xml
+<xpath expr="//field[@name='partner_id']" position="after">
+    <field name="new_field"/>
+</xpath>
+```
+
+### Add Field Inside Group
+```xml
+<xpath expr="//group[@name='group_name']" position="inside">
+    <field name="new_field"/>
+</xpath>
+```
+
+### Replace Field
+```xml
+<xpath expr="//field[@name='old_field']" position="replace">
+    <field name="new_field"/>
+</xpath>
+```
+
+### Add Attributes
+```xml
+<xpath expr="//field[@name='field_name']" position="attributes">
+    <attribute name="readonly">1</attribute>
+    <attribute name="required">1</attribute>
+</xpath>
+```
+
+### Add to Header
+```xml
+<xpath expr="//header" position="inside">
+    <button name="action_custom" string="Custom" type="object"/>
+</xpath>
+```
+
+### Add Notebook Page
+```xml
+<xpath expr="//notebook" position="inside">
+    <page string="New Page">
+        <group>
+            <field name="field1"/>
+        </group>
+    </page>
+</xpath>
+```
