There are also useful plugins such as Advanced Flattening that use more complex algorithms to analyze the stresses of the surfaces, and can be found on the Rhino Labs page.
A third party software that is also sometimes useful is Pepakura. It’s capable of unfolding entire geometries and displaying them in side-by-side view. It also creates tabs for ease of construction. A demo version can be downloaded from the website, but requires the purchase of a key for saving and exporting. A workaround may be to print as a .PDF and open the .PDF in Illustrator.
