Current Behavior

This report is related to this PR #5083.

1. Comment in Config Section:

• 'Ask' option only affects Admin interface. Default for programmatical duplication is to persist images
• The phrasing is functional but lacks grammatical precision and clarity.

2. Dropdown Label:

• Label reads Copy Images on Duplicate.
• This misrepresents the feature as a "copy" action instead of its true purpose—handling image duplication behavior.

Expected Behavior

1. Comment Correction:

• The “Ask” option only applies to the Admin interface and appears there exclusively. By default, programmatic duplication preserves images.
• Why it's beneficial: This new phrasing ensures grammatical accuracy, provides clarity in meaning, and avoids ambiguity regarding the functionality.

2. Dropdown Label:

• Change to Duplicate Product Images.
• Why it's beneficial:
  • Accurately conveys that the dropdown controls behavior during product duplication, not an explicit copying action.
  • Prevents redundancy and visual awkwardness created by Duplicate Duplicate appearing in the context of the dropdown options.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Navigate to System > Configuration > Catalog > Product Image.
2. Observe the comment displayed and the dropdown label.
3. The terms do not align grammatically or contextually with intended functionality.

Environment

- OpenMage: latest from repository
- PHP: 8.4
- Test environment: Ubuntu + DDEV

Anything else?

Dropdown comment:

<?php $this->__('The “Ask” option only applies to the Admin interface. By default, programmatic duplication preserves images.') ?>

Dropdown Label:

<?php $this->__('Duplicate Product Images') ?>

These refinements will improve clarity and align the UI/UX with user expectations.</issue_description>

It is great you used double quotes (“Ask”) to refer to the actual dropdown option in the UI, following Magento/OpenMage conventions for comments. The word "preserves” is used instead of “persists” because it describes the user-facing behavior - existing images remain unchanged, rather than a technical implementation detail.

Here is the visual implementation
