>> I have a Dell Inspirion 1420 and found this feature - in Gnome after clicking the user in the upper right corner, System Settings --> Background (all of which is probably redundant as you have probably done this) - then, with seemingly the same issue you have where there are no buttons, after days I found that clicking the image is where the access point is.

Yeah, I'm clicking on that and I still get no settings that will allow me to set whether the background is Tiled.....Centered.......Fills the screen...Scales to size etc. I wonder if there's a configuration file that can be altered?....and Thanks for the reply!!

>Not the image that you want, yet; click on the image inside the square. This will give you the options for choosing a new image, and resizing is:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-options scaled
