One nice feature of the VoiceOver choosers is that one can type a portion of
the name you are looking for and the chooser will eliminate items that don't
match. This feature is more flexible than the first letter nav available on
other systems in that it will match a string anywhere in the name.
On the other hand, unless you overrode the settings in Keyboard preferences or
disabled it, the command ~ should switch windows in an application.
Best wishes,
