Hover your mouse pointer over the boundary line between the fader and the sends. It will change into a double arrow (at least under Win it does). Click and drag up. Dragging has a grid-like feel to it the hight of a slot/scene. Drag up two steps to show the desired fields, drag up further (up to ten steps) to get a really long fader.

This is one of the miracles in Abletons way of hiding such things and never mentioning in the manual.
Ahh OK...!!! I made a mistake...

It actually is mentioned in the manual. See ch. 14.1.1 - Session Mixer Features

Semantic search would be a great extra. Given the description of the TO he wouldn't have found matching strings.

hmm i asked a lot of pro trance producers - which are live user for a long time - but for some reasons nobody could tell me.
so it looks this function is a bit difficult to find ...
and a lot of ppl learning by doing i think ... so manual reading isnt something for everybody.
