Font Weight in Numbers on the Design Panel

Hi there,

Thank you for sharing your idea! We greatly value your feedback, and we would like to gauge the reaction of other members in the community. We may consider it for future enhancements!

Thanks,

That’d be so useful!

And that’s my need it’ll be amazing

Would be most useful. Landed here trying to find out whether it was possible already.

Absolutely!! Totally agree with this suggestion m. We need to define typography weights variables in numbers.

Our developers also prefer this instead of the naming of the font weight.

Is it possible to display the font weight number and font name?
（Regular +400）

I don’t think it’s available at the moment. If it’s a variable font, the weight in number will be shown in the settings modal:

But, the number is not shown the right panel like this:

Thanks for the feedback!

Could really use this.

Currently switching between two fonts depending on locale (successfully using variables!). However, one has weights such as regular, medium, semi-bold, bold etc. and the other has W0-9, so they can’t share weight variables.

Despite this, on the web, we use numerical (100-900) values for font weight, and they behave well.

Adding support for numeric font weights would add a lot of value to variables imo.

We would love this 🙂

Adding another vote for this feature. Developers use numbers for weight, not names. This is actually impacting our ability to accurately represent reality in our Figma designs.

Adding another vote. It is a limitation. Strongly agreeing with Mike_Turanio.
