Add a way to color monochromatic Patterns and save color variations for patterns
In Fashion Design it's usual to define multiple colorways for Patterns.
It should valuable for Illustrator to save those colorways to be able to switch easily from one version to the other.
Something like saving the visibility of objects but with color in the "Variables Manager"
It should be cool too to get this feature (switching between colorways) in Creative Cloud Browser for reviewing...

Praneet, there is a faster method — using Recolor. Take a look at the GIF attached.
You don’t have to create solid swatches first, you can tweak one in the dialog.
Please drop a comment if it works for you. -

Pattern Variants - Let's say I have 4 colours (for ex, red, green, blue, yellow) and I want my pattern to exist in all 4 colours (a complete red, a complete so on)
> What we usually do - copy the colour code > duplicate the pattern swatch > go into the colour swatch and select the pattern and change its colour > then press done and rename
> What if we find a way to cut down these steps and find ways to make quicker variants of each colour?
If you have any better tips and tricks for changing pattern colours and saving time, please let me know! Thanks

Just like the Brush Stokes colorization.
