Toggle between Sample Editor and Main Window

Is there a shortcut to switch between Main Window and the Sample Editor (or Piano Roll etc)? I know how to cycle through windows with Command- ` but I'm talking about something different. I usually have a Mixer window open on one screen and on another I have the Main window but if I'm using Flex editing or something I often need to toggle my view back and forth between the Main screen and the Editor but at the moment the only way I know how to do it is to click between them with my mouse. Would love a key command if anyone knows what it is or what it is called so I can make my own key command if there isn't one assigned already.

Hi thanks for the reply. I'm aware of the shortcut (It is V by default) but no that not quite what I'm after. I don't want to open and close the Editor just switch between quickly. There is some commands that only work when the Main window is selected (i.e. it has a blue line around the border) such as zooming etc. When I'm sample editing, time aligning or pitch correcting I often need to move quickly between the windows areas and sometime I don't want to move the playhead position (such as when time aligning drum beats) so clicking in the frame with the mouse is a clumsy way of doing it. (See pic)

I think you are describing the "tab" key/function. You can use tab to cycle through all open editors in the main window. So if I am in the Main window (arrange as it was called) and want to go to the Audio editor, hit tab. It will cycle through "windows" If the Event editor is open, it will go there too.

 

Is this what you are thinking: I am just hitting tab each time- and then zooming in and out:
