Is there a way to create variables for axes like width, grade, and slant? Or is the new typography variable support currently limited to the following:


→ Font family

→ Font weight and style

→ Font size

→ Line height

→ Letter spacing

→ Paragraph spacing and indent

Hey @Erin_Standley ,

Thanks for reaching out to the community! This is not possible at this moment.

I’ve gone ahead and switched your topic as a ’ Share an Idea’ so you can vote up for your idea here.


This would really be necessary for me to use Typography Variables in a good way!


I need this as well. We use variables for buidling our different brand websites and one brand leverages a variable typeface while the others do not. Please ass the ability to add variables to the variable axes in Figma
