User have to tap on "Select Image" to remove the image (which sounds a bit off)

I agree. The steps seem to be unnatural.

I'll look into it. and get back to you.

Yes! It feels strange.we can add button button just below the select image to remove background.

Please assign me this issue.

Hi @jainishrpandya I am currently working on this myself.

@oyeraghib ohh! That's great. Ping me here if you need any help.

Sure. Thanks

While I agree that the current steps are unnatural, I don't necessarily agree with the suggested solution (#16091). The remove button being there also looks somewhat unnatural, in my opinion.

Moreover, the option title itself also seems unnatural, since it is dissimilar to the other option titles.

I mean, "Select image" expresses just an step in the middle of the change of this setting. It is not a final result of a change (e.g., "Show top bar", "Show deck title") nor a target of a change (e.g., "Night theme", "App bar buttons"). So, it actually looks odd as an option title.

How about using another title like "Apply image" (or "Show image") Apply image as background (or Show image as background) and toggle button.

Yes! Toggle button with title like "Apply Image background" and when toggle is on it expands the select image option. Otherwise it will be hidden.

Interesting point. So what you are suggesting is:

1. The text should be "Apply image as background" with a toggle button.
2. Initially the toggle button is off
3. If user tries to turn on the toggle and select the image for background, the toggle button turns "ON" setting bg image for deck picker.
4. Now clicking the option to choose image (or trying to turn "OFF" the toggle ) would remove the image.

It is fine but the issue here would be if user wants to replace the image, they would have to first "OFF" the current toggle and then select a new image (turning it back ON), which could again become a bit unnatural from user's perspective.

But I would still keep the suggestion in mind and would wait for any reviewers to comment on the PR and know what do they think.

Thank you for the consideration.

These parts below seem to be somewhat different from what I have imagined.

4. Now clicking the option to choose image (or trying to turn "OFF" the toggle ) would remove the image.

if user wants to replace the image, they would have to first "OFF" the current toggle and then select a new image (turning it back ON), which could again become a bit unnatural from user's perspective.

My thoughts are as follows:

4'. Now tapping the option title (tentatively named Apply image as background) would open the image picker screen again.

5 . Instead, tapping the toggle button would remove the image (after a confirmation dialog for the removal), and turn it "OFF".

I mean, when the toggle button is already turned "ON", the reactions of (A) tapping the title and (B) tapping the toggle button would be different from each other, as in the case of "Custom sync server" option (Settings > Sync > Custom sync server):
