What I got so far is the following

 

1 Open interface to select an assembly file

2 BOM List gets auto exported

3 All sheet metal parts on the BOM will be checked for their thickness and counted.

4 Interface which shows each thickness with corresponding amounts with checkboxes to place or not place that thickness on the sheet.

5 All views get placed sorted on their thickness

6 All parts will be replaced with their flat patterns

7 The Folds get labeled with up and down with corresponding degrees

8 If there are more folds down than up, it will show the back view so its easier in the workshop

9 A label gets added to the view with thickness, partname and amount and such

10 An optional label gets added in which assemblies the sheet metal parts get used (for easy sorting in the workshop)

 

The only thing I am currently looking for is a good algorithm to automaticaly position all parts on the drawing
