Thank you so much for this. My geometry uses lots of bent plywood sheets and I needed a way to unbend/unroll multiple breps and lay out for cnc machining and laser cutting. Hugely helpful.

Wow! thanks... This is working incredibly. I can even unroll a number of breps at the same time... But is there a way to make them unroll in a specific place? say  right next to the surface they belong to?

I organized on a grid each of a series of parts that make up a sort of blob, and its way important that i correctly attribute the respective I.D. tag.

thanks in advance.

I did it!!! and i am terribly happy. Since I had arranged the parts (not unfolded) in a grid with corresponding text, I plugged the new unfolder BEFORE organizing (orienting) the parts and it honors the same order.

could you tell me a little about how you put together the unfold command?

Hello Danniely,

It is just calling the Unroll Command from Rhino. Therefore the unroll behaves similarly as the rhino unroll.
