Thats correct. The main window is not covered up. The second window is not
modal I agree. In the second window I just need to collect some additional
info that will go the the second's window controller. There will be OK and
Cancel buttons on that window to close it. The main window will not change
after.


If you have OK and Cancel buttons in the second window, you're implying to your user that it's modal. If you still want the main window to be accessible/usable while the second window is open, just display it as a regular window with a close widget (red dot upper left).

Without knowing what you're asking for, why the main window still needs to be accessible etc, it's really not possible to give any better advice. Upload screenshots somewhere and explain what you're doing.
