Typography variables now include scoping, a follow up from Framework

  • Scoping a variable allows you to limit which properties it can be applied to. This gives you better control over where the variable can be used and cuts out the guesswork when designing.
  • For example, if you scope a number variable to font size, you’ll only be able to apply the variable to font size.

  • No longer automatically populating a file with local variables by default unless a user specifies
  • Introducing an interstitial tooltip (B) that requires the user to confirm before bringing along any local variables.
