I always have four different application windows open in the same position. I want to assign shortcuts to each one that will allow me to focus that window regardless of the previously focused window. I am thinking of using Super + [window #] to toggle the windows. The desired setup is below.

Does anyone know of a way to do this?

I'm using Ubuntu 16. The windows are really spread across 3 different screens but I don't think that should matter.

Ended up adding the applications as favorites in the Ubuntu/Gnome Dock and toggling with Super-1, Super-2, etc in Ubuntu 16. Then switched to putting the applications in different workspaces in Ubuntu 18 as described here
