Yes, there is.

FL_ObjWin() returns the Window containing the Form.

fl_get_canvas_id() returns the Canvas's Window. The Canvas Window is
contained within the Form Window and has a separate Window XID. You
can verify this by using the X utility program `xwininfo'. See your
favorite X utilities manual or the man page for more exciting details
on how to use this program.
