When a user saves an image in my program, I first pop up a file selector window. After that I need to pop up another window that like the file selector, always stays on top of my main window, always retains focus over my main window, and allows me to add a slider and a drop down box to it.

Is there a window type like this? I suppose it might be possible to hard code events that force the behavior I want, but the window would still end up having an X on it so the user can close it that way instead of entering information into it. I'd rather do it the right way, and a non-messy way that doesn't require me to tack stuff onto a bunch of different events.
