    So I downloaded the 2017 sketchup make plu the sketchucam extension and loaded it.

    So in the video tutorial video it states you must not use 3D as it will not work, you need
    to use 2D format only.

    I have hunted unsuccessfully to figure out which Sketchup template to select on startup and
    make sure a given drawing only will be in 2D.

    Help?

    Hi
    There are a few plugins for unwrapping 3D objects into flat panels, you will have to google it.
    Also, this video might help...
