[comp.windows.open-look] How do you specifying an Xview View without splitting?

I was working with Canvases and Views in Xview, and it looked like
the only way to specify a view is to split a Canvas.  What I want to
do is specify the rectangle that is the view, and for that to
be the ONLY view... for example:

     ---------------------------------------
     |      /        /                     |
     |     /--------/    Paint             |
     |     |        |    Window            |
     |     | View 0 |                      |
     |     |        |                      |
     |     |        |/                     |
     |     ---------/                      |
     |                                     |
     |                                     |
     ---------------------------------------

Is there a way to do this without splitting a canvas into
more than one view (or to have it behave as if there is only one)?
