Keyboard short cut for previous view

Since the last update my keyboard shortcut for switching to the previous view--say back to a detail from plan or 3D--doesn't work. It just toggles successively through all the open windows. I'd fix it but I can't find the command listed in Keyboard Shortcuts. Anyone know what it's named?

Hi,

I found the settings you might be looking for in - Window - Navigate.

Maybe you can define your custom ones there.

Hope this helps.

Right idea, but no luck, thanks Cosmin. I've searched commands with "go" "back" "toggle" etc but can't find it. 

How do other people do this: if you're in any window—plan, section, layout, detail, schedule, etc—how to you get back to the previous window you were just in? For the past twenty years I've just hit command-~. Now that just cycles me through every open window till I get back to the right one a dozen clicks later.

I personally use F2 or F3 to toggle between plan and section and avoid opening too many “tabs” at once.

There is the "Show Previous Tab" and "Show Next Tab" pair of commands, but I am not sure that is what you are looking for.
