      "You can't", at least so far as I know.

      • Either you would have to re-create all the widgets etc. the other window shows, which is not a small task. You cannot "share"/"re-use" widgets across windows.

      • Or, if it suits your purpose, you could dump one window to an image, like a "screenshot", and then show that in another window.
