Draw Straight Line When Editing Velocity

How on earth do I draw a straight line when editing velocities for MIDI notes? I see the draw option in the context menu, but that just appears to be a free-form pencil tool (basically). Isn't there a way to draw a straight line?
What I am trying to do is ramp up velocities in a smooth transition. The free-form draw mode definitely doesn't work for this. I am hoping I am just overlooking a simple switch or button to make this happen.
Thanks.

Draw mode OFF
and I think you have to hold ctrl/cmd and drag. Try with different modifier keys, I'm not completely sure which one, you'll see a dotted diagonal line if it's working.

Excellent. Thanks. I'm still waiting for the boxed shipment of Suite 7 to arrive, so I am lacking a manual at the moment. I'll try this when I get home.

Just to follow-up: selecting all the notes and COMMAND-Click-Drag draws a straight line, setting all velocities to the line. Perfect! I appreciate the help here... this is excellent!

Live 11 - MAC..
Select notes that are to be edited, or none for all, or all for all...
turn Draw mode ON (b), then...
Option + click + drag
That is what does it for me
