Okay, I thought I had this figured out, but upon further testing, I  
don't see how to specify the argument. I have defaults and a 'Node  
Content' display on my view, so I have no path to put %1 into, to tell  
it where to pull the argument from. I thought maybe there would be an  
option under the Display settings, to use the node ID as an argument,  
(similar to panels integration where you can choose the source of  
arguments) but I don't see anything like that.

So I can't figure out how to pass the node ID to view without it being  
a page with an argument in the path for the page display.
