Toggle current desktop apps

How can I toggle between 2 apps I have in a desktop?

I'm not looking to use command tab- that toggles all apps.

Ex: Mail and Word are open in one Desktop - I'm looking for a shortcut that toggles between the 2.

Thoughts?

Use the F3 on keyboard

This is what I get with both Safari and Mail on One Desktop

Frontmost app follows me on every new Desktop What is the setting in Preferences where you can toggle the front most app to follow you around every time you open a new Workspace? I'd like to open a new Desktop without the frontmost app appearing every time.

How to unhide windows all belonging to the same app I have the same problem with all apps, from finder to a browser. If we take finder for example, if I have more than one finder window open, I want to be move from one window to another quickly. However the usual window swapping approaches using CMD-tab or the dock only rotate between apps, but not between windows in the same app. Is there a quick way to do this and even better could I make it a short cut? At the moment I have to use the Window menu and manually select the different windows at the bottom of that menu, which is slow and cumbersome. Because they are not fixed menu commands, you can't setup a shortcut.
