Canvas - region for graphics output

#include <InterViews/canvas.h>

A canvas is an area for graphics output associated with an interactor. Most interactors do not need to perform any operations on a canvas; they simply pass a canvas as an argument to graphics operations. In this case, it is not necessary to include ``canvas.h''.
