How can I edit or change the precision of a bend note (on a sketched bend) created in a flat pattern drawing ? (e.g. UP 35.00 deg R1.00 to UP 35 deg R1) I cant seem to find a setting in document properties...

The easiest way to change the bend note precision for all bend notes is to change the document property for angle precision. This will, of course, change it for all angle dims in the drawing, but then you can individually modify any other angle dims that need decimals.

Newer versions of SolidWorks have been updated to provide more control.
Tools > Options > Document Properties > Tables > Bend
Will only affect the precision of the bend annotations (angle, radius, bend allowance), and not the entire document.
Tools > Options > Document Properties > Units
Will update the annotation precision for the entire document.
Pasi,
While in your drawing open the Options dialog select the Document Properties tab, look for Units in the left column, select, change your decimal precision for length and angle there. Of course this becomes a global change to the entire dwg. file, but if you need to change other dims' precision, you'll be able to do that through their respective properties dialog.
