Add Variable support for Letter Case

It would be really helpful to be able to use a variable to set a Type Style’s Letter Case (under the Type Settings meatball menu).

It could be a String Variable, and the options would be “As entered”, “Uppercase”, “Lowercase”, “Title case”, and “Small caps”.

I personally use modes to switch between different brands, and some brand styles require uppercase while others don’t allow it. This suggestion may be a small feature in the grand scheme, but I wonder if others would also find it useful.

Still checking each release notes hoping to see this feature. Such a fundamental need for multi-brand design systems. The current workarounds are really holding back our team’s efficiency.

I’ve got exactly the same use case here… Multi-brand design systems with no way of changing the text case across modes! As a workaround, I may show/hide additional text with a different style depending on the mode… This is going to suck!

Same issue, switching between brands and some needing variables in casing. Our system has grown to include 5 brands, typography variables have made this possible but there are some misses including this one where we are making alt styles. Please add so I can make a true, clean multi-brand system with typeography.

+1 for this, we run multiple brand designs system and this feature not being available is preventing us from fully rolling out.

+1 here too - we are approaching twenty brands and this feels like the missing jigsaw piece - it is very time consuming managing styles like this via content string names or overrides.

Yes please. Necessary for multi-brand. Seems like a no-brainer!
