Name a canvas plane

Each canvas plane has a name. When you create a canvas plane, Alias automatically names it either:

• Canvas_<window>, Canvas_<window>#2, Canvas_<window>#3, etc, where <window> is the name of the window on which the canvas plane was created (for example Top) when importing an image into a view.
• Canvas_1, Canvas_2, Canvas_3, etc, when using Canvas > New Canvas or File > New.

You may, however, want to give a meaningful name to each canvas plane.
