Hi Arjan,
 good question.
There isn't out of the box, but all the information is there in the 
vmtkbranchmapping output already, 
namely StretchedMapping -> y coordinates and AngularMetric -> x coordinates.
It should be pretty straightforward to code up a python code that sets the 
point coordinates based 
on those arrays.

There is one bit missing, that is the longitudinal cut at pi / -pi. If you want 
it clean (i.e. straight), then 
there's some work to do (you can take some inspiration at how the patching code 
does it).

Probably the clean way would be to decompose the patching class in two, one for 
cutting the 
vessel open along pi / -pi, the other for patching.

Hope this helps, let me know if you need more hints.

Best,


Luca
