How Do I Go Back And Forth Between Illustrator & Character Animator Seemlessly

I am trying to take a blank puppet and update it to a character I want to use.

 

How do I go back and forth between these two programs.

 

I don't know how to do it and it's frustrating.

 

I watch the oksamuria video and it doesn't tell me exactly how it goes back and forth.

 

Thank you!

Inside Character Animator, there is an "Edit Original" menu item (CTRL-E) that brings up photoshop or illustrator on the artwork. If you save the file in the drawing program then go back to CH, when it regains focus it will see the file change and re-import the file. So I just use ALT-Tab to get back after saving the file.
