I am writing a research paper for a word matching game. However, when I try to rescale the images for my paper the sizing does not change. The code below generates the figures:
\begin{figure}
\includegraphics[scale=0.4, clip,width=0.9\linewidth]{figure/fig_1.PNG}
\caption{Word Match Generator Before Dragging Boxes}
\label{fig:fig1}
\end{figure}
\begin{figure}
\includegraphics[scale=0.4, clip,width=0.9\linewidth]{figure/Figure2.png}
\caption{Word Match After Dragging Boxes}
\label{fig:fig2}
\end{figure}
\begin{figure}
\includegraphics[scale=0.2, clip,width=0.9\linewidth]{figure/congratulations_button.PNG}
\caption{Congratulations Dialog Box}
\label{fig:fig3}
\end{figure}
Expected:
A set of figures are generated such that any modification to scale=0.2 should change the figure size.
Actual:
The figures remain the same despite any change:

Any help understanding how to fix this issue would be helpful.
includegraphicsto scale your figure to 90% of the line width... Use scale OR width – Rmano Feb 06 '22 at 21:090.9\linewidth. The same result you will get if you use scale only to0.9\linewidth. So, it is not clear, what is goal of your scaling ... – Zarko Feb 06 '22 at 21:46\sbox0{\incudegraphics[scale=0.2]{...}}\ifdim\wd0>\linewidth \resizebox{\linewidth}{\box0} \else \centering\box0 \fi– John Kormylo Feb 07 '22 at 15:24
