Found your code on a business school website

And also on an banking & fintech event poster.

nice! Thanks for letting me know :)

@fornof are you the original author of the stock picture? If not, then your code on Github does not show any software license, so it is all right reserved by default.

are you the original author of the stock picture?

looks like you are not. The author of those visuals can be found via google reverse image.

I beg your pardon, but I am the author of the code base, and have git log dating back to 2014 (7 years ago) to prove it: https://github.com/fornof/BlenderAddons/commit/845ff940a08b6ae1b883dca7f6a6cf297a0b1475 There's no joy in suing, which is why I don't.

Sorry, I didn't meant you weren't the author of the code, but you are not the author of the stock photo that are around (if you were then there would be no problem).

So that means that author is actually doing copyright infringement, probably not in bad faith. I think this would be preferable if you put a liberal licence on this code so that people that use images from monsitj are not committing copyright infringement without realising.

You could put https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ or even https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WTFPL those are very liberal and would reaffirm what I can see informally in all those issues, that you are pretty happy to see artists reuse your work as an example of beautiful code :)

I think that image is a built-in image of PowerPoint now. If I title a PowerPoint slide as "code", this image shows up as a suggested background image in "design ideas". I already see it several times from internal presentations by my coworkers. Congrats for the visibility!

I feel the following part can be simplified a bit.

if _operation == "MIRROR_X":
    mirror_mod.use_x = True
    mirror_mod.use_y = False
    mirror_mod.use_z = False
elif _operation == "MIRROR_Y":
    mirror_mod.use_x = False
    mirror_mod.use_y = True
    mirror_mod.use_z = False
elif _operation == "MIRROR_Z":
    mirror_mod.use_x = False
    mirror_mod.use_y = False
    mirror_mod.use_z = True

However, it won't change the stock image no matter how we improve it.

Turned up here.

How about this:

mirror_mod.use_x = _operation == "MIRROR_X"
mirror_mod.use_y = _operation == "MIRROR_Y"
mirror_mod.use_z = _operation == "MIRROR_Z"
