+1 – Figma features and additions seem to be getting slower and slower as the years get on. Please don’t rest on your laurels as Adobe has been doing for the last 20+ years

Hi ​@OG_Can ,
 

Yes, you can use percentage-based values in variables, depending on the design tool you're using. Many tools support relative sizing—like setting width or shape size to a percentage of the parent frame—which works great for responsive layouts. If your tool supports expressions or constraints, or if you just need to quickly calculate values manually, this Percentage Calculator is a super handy tool to have on hand.

Let us know what software you're using for more specific tips!
