Research direction

Start in the first-launch onboarding wizard implementation and locate where predefined avatars and the profile picture preview are initialized. Confirm that the first avatar is selected when the wizard opens while other avatar choices and custom uploads still work; no specific test file is identified in the issue.

[BUG] PROD: v1.3.0-beta First-Launch Onboarding Does Not Auto-Select the Default Avatar

Description

On the first launch of PictoPy v1.3.0-beta, the onboarding wizard displays a profile setup page where new users can enter their name and choose an avatar or upload a custom profile picture.

Currently, no avatar is selected by default. The profile picture preview displays the placeholder text PREVIEW, even though multiple predefined avatars are available below it.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Launch PictoPy v1.3.0-beta for the first time.
  2. Navigate to the first step of the onboarding wizard.
  3. Observe the profile picture preview and the available avatar options.
Actual Behavior
  • The profile picture preview displays PREVIEW.
  • None of the predefined avatars is selected by default.
  • The user must manually select an avatar to populate the profile picture preview.
Expected Behavior
  • The first predefined avatar should be automatically selected by default when the onboarding wizard opens.
  • The profile picture preview should immediately display the first avatar instead of the PREVIEW placeholder.
  • Users should still be able to select a different predefined avatar or upload a custom profile picture.
Environment
  • Application: PictoPy
  • Version: v1.3.0-beta
  • Occurrence: First launch, initial onboarding step
  • Category: Production Bug / Onboarding UI
