Microsoft Maquette 2020.3.8.0.1953 Release (Deprecate Google Poly)May 7, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsGoogle Poly is shutting down on June 30, 2021. As a result, Maquette is deprecating its Google Poly integration. As of today, you can no longer add new Poly models to your projects. We recommend either replacing non-editable Poly models with editable versions or finding other replacements to avoid any future project issues. In a later release by June 30, 2021, we will need to completely remove the ability to load Poly models contained in any project (the rest of the project will continue to load). If you'd still like to use the Google Poly feature between now and then, an alternative branch "2020.3.7.0.1605" mapped to the previous version of Maquette is available.
