Folding Sheet Animation... 

You can use this function to study existing folding schemes or ones you created yourself in a three-dimensional animated graphic. A three-dimensional graphic is computed based on the rules created in the Folding Scheme Editor, showing you the fold direction and what the pages look like when folded.
