Publishing Image: Not able to remove it

Question

Good morning,
I have a problem with a Pulishing Image attribute on a library: I add it as an optional parameter and everything works fine (creating a new item without filling this field and creating a new item filling in it).
My problem is when I want to remove a previously populated image from a library item. I receive a warning that I cannot leave that field empty.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

Hi,
Per my understanding, there is a Publishing Image type column in your library. When removing an image from an item of this column in EditForm.aspx page, there is a warning message
that cannot leave this field empty.
I tried to reproduce this issue in my environment as below:
1. Create a custom site column in “Publishing Image” type;
2. Add this custom site column to a library;
3. Add new document into this library, in the EditForm.aspx page, select an image for the custom site column, save;
4. “Edit Properties” of this newly item, in the EditForm.aspx page, remove the image from that site column, save;
It turns out that all works as expected.
I suggest you follow the steps above for another test in a new library to see if the issue persists.
Thanks
