You can setup multiple windows within the Sierra Chart software by un-maximizing the charts and then adjusting them. Or you can use the Tiling options under the Window menu. Refer to the information starting here:
Window and CW Menus: Cascade (Window)

If you prefer to have them detached from the main window, then refer to the information here for how to detach a window:
Detaching and Attaching Chart Windows

You are correct that there are a few windows that are always detached and can not be attached such as the Time and Sales. But the Trade Window can be attached - refer to the following:
Trade Menu: Attach Trade Window To Chart Window (Trade menu)

In terms of Sub-Instances - the first time you start a New Instance it copies the files from the main instance, so it will look familiar, but it has it's own instance number, which starts at 2 and then each instance started while others are running gets a new number. Then, when you start a new instance again, it is going to start with #2 then #3 and so on.

You can also have sub-instances start automatically when you log into Sierra Chart, like you can do with Chartbooks. You can then define which numbered instance starts. Refer to the information here:
General Settings Window: Instances to Run on Startup (Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> New Instances)
