Hi, does anyone know there is an extension that has the same functionality as Unfold tool? [Google SketchUp -- Unfold Tool] I am looking for simple extension to manually unfold 3d models.I found “Unwrap and Flatten Faces” extension, but did not discovered how to use is manually.

See this post … [image] Printing 2D surfaces from 3D body SketchUp @dmhmaestro To my knowledge there are three unfolding plugins available. Thanks to @slbaumgartner, my favorite, jf_unfold, was recently updated to work in SU 2016 and newer. Thanks to @jim_foltz for permission to re-release it to the community. jf_unfold_2018 prgsbar.rbz (4.2 KB) The .rbz file includes the following: • jf_unfoldtool_2018.rb • progressbar.rb EDIT: Oops … thanks for noticing that @DaveR

There’s Flattery. There are instructions for Alex’s Unwrap and Flatten Faces on the EW page. And a link to his site for more information at the bottom of the instructions. Jim’s Unfold plugin, which is being demonstrated in the video you linked to, was retired some time ago. That was never a SketchUp tool.

@DaveR thank you for quick response, I visited Alexander’s web page and watched some videos how to use this extension, but did not find how to use is without automation (manually). @Geo that was my hope to find re-released version. Do you know why this re-released version is not in extension warehouse?

I’d forgotten that Jim’s plugin had been re-released. [image] robertjuch: Do you know why this re-released version is not in extension warehouse? Not all extensions/plugins are are in the Extension Warehouse. It’s up to the author and they have different reasons.
