Make glue tabs alternate

[Treehee]

As of tight now, if you export a paper model using the script, it usually places the tabs so all/most of the tabs ar all on the same side of a seam, making it harder to glue the model correctly. Making the tabs alternate every edge on a seam (or having the option to) would greatly improve the quality of models made using this script.

In fact, I was aiming for the opposite behavior. Putting all tabs together makes the parts somewhat easier to cut out. I think I have never seen a model with alternating tabs, but the argument you make sounds valid.

You make a valid point when it comes to scissors, but not for knifes I think.

Overall, It should probably be a setting.

*Alternating tabs improve glueing by sort of catching eachother on the seam

I am not sure this is the right place to add my comment, but I would like tabs on ALL sides/edges, so no bending but just tabs everywhere. This is in order to cut and bend sheet metal where each polygon/face is cut and connected by tabs 'underneath' (bending angles would be a nice addon feature ;) ). Anyway, wondering if this is not just a few lines of python away...or is it already implemented? Could not find it in the Documentation. If someone has some pointers towards achieving this in python I would also be happy (which file to look at, what variables I could use, or is this to much depending on other variables?). Also, where can I donate to this project, this is an amazing plugin/feature!
