macOS timeline

Every release we support, against every version of macOS. Find the column for the macOS you run, then look down it — if a row is filled under your macOS, that release runs on your Mac.

About macOS 28. macOS 27 Golden Gate shipped on September 14, 2026 and our current releases run on it — its column carries real marks like every other. macOS 28 has not shipped: it shows “expected” where nothing we know of stops a current release, and a dash everywhere else — including for the Rosetta 2 rows, where the reason is sourced: Apple removes Rosetta 2 there.

Note 1 — v12 (build 1204.98). Build 1204.98 is the last build on the earlier version of the 3D modeling kernel. Build 1204.200 moved to a newer kernel; the regressions some customers hit after that move were fixed by build 1204.219. We keep 1204.98 available as a fallback, in case a new regression appears that it does not share. It is also the build for a Mac that cannot update to macOS 12 Monterey or later. Otherwise, the current build, v12 (build 1204.219), is the one to install.

Note 2 — Heritage Edition. Only for customers who specifically paid for a long-term Heritage Edition subscription prior to October 31st, 2024 — that window is closed, and it cannot be supplied to anyone else. It has a reason to stay in use on every macOS it runs on: it is the only build that still has PhotoRender and Animation, and the only one with Parasolid export. That is the picture as of build 1204.219 — however, all of them are being worked on, and we are on target to have the functionality replaced prior to October 31st, 2026.

Note 3 — Graphite v13 SE on High Sierra and Mojave. Graphite v13 SE may run on macOS 10.13 High Sierra and 10.14 Mojave, but it is not officially supported there — Graphite v12 is. Active v13 SE subscribers can have Graphite v12 on request. Graphite Share v13 SE is the same build and in the same position. That is why the v13 SE marks are grey on those two.

Windows timeline

The same picture for Windows. Microsoft's own end of support is shown under each version — a machine past it still runs the software, but no longer gets Windows updates.

Supported on that Windows version — runs natively

Note 1 — v12 (build 1204.98). Build 1204.98 is the last build on the earlier version of the 3D modeling kernel. Build 1204.200 moved to a newer kernel; the regressions some customers hit after that move were fixed by build 1204.219. We keep 1204.98 available as a fallback, in case a new regression appears that it does not share. Otherwise, the current build, v12 (build 1204.219), is the one to install.

Note 2 — Heritage Edition. Only for customers who specifically paid for a long-term Heritage Edition subscription prior to October 31st, 2024 — that window is closed, and it cannot be supplied to anyone else. On Windows as on the Mac it is the only build that still has PhotoRender and Animation, and the only one with Parasolid export — the reason holders keep running it. That is the picture as of build 1204.219 — however, all of them are being worked on, and we are on target to have the functionality replaced prior to October 31st, 2026.

A dash does not mean broken — it means we do not support that combination. For your specific Mac, the compatibility checker gives a direct answer.
