1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
detecting a selection of a fold line of a virtual object;
directly responsive to the selection of the fold line, causing display of a three-dimensional folding tool along the selected fold line, the three-dimensional folding tool including a first handle positioned on a first panel adjacent to the selected fold line and a second handle positioned on a second panel adjacent to the selected fold line, the first handle and the second handle displayed in alignment with and extending from a center point of the fold line;
detecting input associated with the first handle on the first panel adjacent to the selected fold line; and
responsive to the input associated with the first handle, rotating the first panel about the selected fold line while fixing a position of the second panel adjacent to the selected fold line.
