Keeping window on top.

[mquezada nlxcorp com]

I have a drawing tool with a floating menu (similar layout to the gimp).
The drawing area must occupy the entire screen so I need to have the menu
on top of the drawing window at all times. Will the "modal" attribute help?
It seems like this would also capture all the focus.

Thanks.
