How to move between nested viewports in paper space

I cannot find a means of moving between nested viewports in paper space. I am stuck in Autocad Land trying to use Control > R. Any Ideas ?

    One way would be to assign something like:

    (if (= (getvar "TILEMODE") 0)(setvar "CVPORT" (+ (getvar "CVPORT") 1)))

    (if (= (getvar "TILEMODE") 0)(if (> (getvar "CVPORT") 1)(setvar "CVPORT" (- (getvar "CVPORT") 1))))

    to a cutom toolbar button or keystroke. The first line should move up through the viewports and the second should move down until CVPORT==1 which would have paperspace active. Change the 1 to a 2 if you did not want to be able to switch out of model space completely.

    I've tried this method in the Windows version I own:

    Go to  Settings --> Drawing-->Viewports, layouts and tabs (resize the dialogue box so you can see the viewports)

    Change the values of current viewport  while watching the viewport highlight  change with the values.

    Not as easy as a Ctrl +, but it works.
