    GameMaker Changing Viewports while in the game

    So I'm working on a game with a lot of numbers in your face. Basic info is on viewport 0 and for player stats and other important info I wanted to be able to hit the S key and pull up the stats by switching to viewport 1, and then hit S again to switch back to viewport 0. Anyone know what to do?
