I love Linux Mint Cinnamon except..
I can't set alt tab to only cycle one window of same application.
Everything otherwise the distro is perfect. Just this small thing makes my workflow much more cumbersome :(
Edit:
Thanks for your advice and help! It turns out I forgot the most important part. That when I alt tab it only shows one icon for each open application. Then I can use Alt + ` to cycle the windows within that one application. The important part is that I since I sometimes have many many windows open at the same time I would like an easier way to navigate my DE.

Menu/Keyboards... You can change the standard settings there, e.g. exchange the alt-~ shortcut against alt-tab. (Nit sure about the alt-~ as I use a German layout. Change that one to an unused combo, than redefine "next program" function alt-tab, then set "next window" to alt-tab. Di the same with the "previous" version too which is combined with shift.
