Fold, Unfold vs Flatten

Hi everybody,

I have just finished one job and I used Fold/Unfold feature for creating Flat Pattern because feature Flatten would not allow me what I needed to do.

If I save my UNFOLD part to DWG, will I have the same result for laser cut as if I use FLATTEN feature?

I have not found any post or comments that describe the difference between FOLD/UNFOLD vs FLATTEN.

Thank you again and have a great day!!!!
