    Not sure why this Sketchup file will not produce G code for 3 cut lines created using Centerline tool while holding down Shift key to select single edge. Files are attached.

    They will not cut because the cutlines are touching the outline of the rectangle.
    either
    delete the rectangle
    or
    select the 3 cutlines, right click the selection, create group

    This is why the fold tool exists, it automatically shortens a line so that it no longer touches the boundaries.
