Type: Feature Request

Create a custom variable

I have a pro subscription for the new theme builder app and want to create a custom variable that is neither a color nor typography related but cannot find a way to do this.

My use case is that I want to create a variable that has a size (such as 5px) that I can then assign to the margin property of a number of components. I could then adjust this property and all the components would update at once (the same as changing the primary-color changes all components).

How would I acheive this?

Thanks

Hello Steve,

I've converted this to a public feature request. You can follow it here: https://feedback.telerik.com/themebuilder/1580783-create-a-custom-variable

Additionally, I want to just let you know that we have planned this feature and our engineering team will start working on it. You can expect it to be implemented in one of the upcoming releases.

Hello Steve,

The desired functionality is not supported in the current version of ThemeBuilder. Now you can only add color and typography variables. Adding custom variables different than color and typography is in our roadmap and I will send your request to our Product Manager to increase the priority of this functionality.

Also, if you wish I can transfer this to an official public feature request where the community can vote for it and we will plan it accordingly.

Is there any other functionality that you missed in the tool? As you know the customer's feedback is highly appreciated and our roadmap is aligned with customers' needs.

Looking forward to your reply.
