How is the question related to multithreading? You can't even use GUI/Qml stuff in different threads - this is not supported in Qt. All UI related stuff needs to be in the main (GUI) thread.

Okay still fairly new to pyqt5 and thus my answer was based more on general programming knowledge -- multi-threading would allow the opening of multiple instances (and thus multiple windows) if that was part of the issue (which is not clearly defined at this point) and I also stated "or use a dockwidget" as that is an easy means of opening additional windows within the mainwindow if that is the only issue (again the actual issue is not clearly defined - so I was trying to cover both possible angles I could see within the statement that was made).
