When using the perfect eraser you can hold down the shift key for a straight line. Click on the first point then hold down the shift key and then click on the end of the pole.
The tools you show are a great way to make B&W Conversion and ajustments in On1. There is one trick that I would also recommend is to put a Color Adjustment filter below the B&W filter in the filter stack. It gives you dramatically more effective controls of the conversion when you want to do something equivalent to using an on-camera color filter. I think it was a video from Blake Rudis showing this hack a few years ago and it is just as effective with the current version of On1.
Nice introduction to all the features in the BW effect.
Thank you.

Thanks. I should have remembered that little technique because I've used it before. It just didn't come to mind, so I'm glad you shared it here.

Thanks, Edward. That's an old Photoshop trick and you make a good point that it can work in ON1 and probably other tools.
