      One of the things i use Sketchup for is to design etch-brass model parts: I make the item in "3D" then ahve to fold out the various pieces onto the same plane so that i can then generate a flat pdf of the parts.

      Is there a plugin that allows you to fold/unfold parts without haivng to do everything manually with the rotate key?

        There are a few plugins for unfolding. Jim's Unfold is one and then there's Flattery. As far as refolding, I'm not aware of any.
