First link is to the Autodesk documentation. Is this not what you want?
this is my 2 piece of strip. you can see unfold for left do the job correctly but for right piece it dont perfectly strait it.
Odd things happen when you try to unwrap UVs without freezing transformations first.
Unitize the uvs, unfold horizontally, select ring edges along the full length, move and sew, repeat...
That won't work for the asset with the pinched corners, you'll need to split it up and manually arrange the bits.
So yeah, it's basically shit at this sort of thing.
