For non-gradient use cases, we can handle it with layer opacity. But for gradients, it’s impossible if you want different opacities of the same colour at different points.

+1, layer opacity is definitely not the anwser (think about the handover to developers). Additionally, oklch implementation would also help.

+1 vote for this feature!

+1 I really need this feature

Huge +1 on this one 🙏

+1 as it would ease our design token implementation using variables

We need the ability to set opacity on only the fill or the stroke, not the whole layer

+1 on this! Would be so great!

Sometimes, this is truly necessary, especially when working on templates where changing one color, like the brand color, automatically updates all variations.

All I wish for Christmas is this 🥲

Please.

+1 for the opacity option for a color variable

+1 Design System management and theming so painful without this

This is an atrocity. Figma this really needs addressing.

We need this!!! +1000

Would love this

+1 to any suggestion that involves breaking the link between color and opacity.

following… me three (hundred) 

+1 Just started using variables and while they’re great, it feels incomplete without this. Any solid color system needs to support defining variants relative to a base color.

+1 This is much needed

+1 this - definitely need this for the color system

+1 from me.  Not having separation of transparency and colour variables is going to cause me lots of extra work, and will result in a messy design system that’s hard to manage.
