Unroll a folded surface

Hi all, I read a lot of discussion on this topic, but all i tried didn't work, maybe because all plug ins where too old.

How can I unroll a folded surface (brep) in grasshopper? I don't want to explode the surface, the command unroll Srf in rhinocheros is perfect, is there an easy way to recall a rhino command inside grasshopper?

I think i have a problem with plug ins, the python add on works just the first time I use it in every new grasshopper session, than will appear a single yellow panel with strange character inside, I have tryed to unlock the file, but there is no unlock button on the propreties, anyone tried it on windows 10?

ok I figured it out, it was my version of Rhinoceros that was older than the plug-in's supported release, updating rhinoceros I solved the problem, and I used this to unfold the surface
