Within a condition I am using the Set variable action to set the color of the variable alertStatus, however I need to go rogue and set that color by hand, despite having it defined in my system (as a style or color variable does not matter).
Is there a way to do this with defined colors? If not this is inefficient and error-prone and there should be a manner of feeding existing colors to variables within actions.
Same goes for variable modes. I created a collection with all my colors and for each I have a Light mode and a Dark mode. I was expecting to be able to change the mode in the Set variable prototype as per this help article
Select mode definitions in prototype actions
Not sure if it’s a bug or I am doing something wrong.
Yeah, I wanted to point a token colour variable at a different primitive colour variable … though there is only the colour picker or document colours to choose from here. Not the actual colour variables already defined in the primitives collection. 
Nope, afaik there is no way to change the mode of a variable. You select it once and when you use set variable, it change the variable only for that mode
Still interested in this topic 
.
If one color value used in many conditionals, it’s ultra inefficient to choose via picker or typing in every time. Any changes in here, or has anybody have hints for any way-arounds?
