Experts...

With all event_procs, we have canvas_paint_windows. How can I get to the
owner, i.e. the frame, of such a window?

For panel items, I can use XV_OWNER to get to the panel and subsequently
the frame. I can do the same with a canvas, but it seems to me that this
is not true for a canvas_paint_window.

Possible solution: to xv_set the `frame' as a XV_KEY_DATA to the window.

But I wish to know if there is something like XV_OWNER for
canvas_paint_windows about which I am not aware of?

Thanks.
